yeah, Hughie is on another planet to Tommy.
Hughie isn't bad at all, it's taken solid world level fighters to beat him. He's clearly kind of euro level that can hang with B level fighters that are world level. There's no shame in that, it's actually very respectable when you consider there's 1400 active heavyweights. Hughie when active would beat Wardley and Adelaye, who are in a British title fight next.
Tommy on the other hand has found his level. Tough scraps with YouTubers that have been training for about 3 or 4 years.
No way the two can be talked about in same breath.
Yeah hughie was probably just outside the top 20 in the world. i wondered what happened to him and it seems he had some health issues. but hughie been in there with a number of contenders and former champs that is way beyond what tommy has done

Do you think Ali could seriously beat Fury head to head? Lolllll
It would be a mauling. Fury would bully him.

I know you are trolling but i'll play along. Fury in reality is a poor mans Foreman. He's beaten virtually no-one in their prime except Wilder...who if im honest i support...so those were good wins. Youth tells that these super heavyweights of today would be too big and too strong for the heavies of the past....but history tells us that the heavies of the past actually knew how to fight. Stamina over 15 rounds. Footwork and hand skills. Fought to win...not to cash out. Did it in the ring...not in the papers (the internet of the past). Fury has no real rivals in this era...which allows for his status to be inflated in terms of history. But lets be real. He might have been competitive but he would never have been winning.
Foreman was 217lbs in his prime and 6'3, he would be boiling down to cruiserweight if he was active today.
15 rounds yes, but they used to fight heavyweight fights at a snails pace then, especially foreman. Fury can dog fight for 12 rounds at a pace, Foreman couldn't even punch Ali for 6 rounds without blowing out of his arse and getting gassed out.
Fury is a much bigger man and can fight on the front foot, back foot, inside, outside, southpaw, orthodox, you name it. Foreman used to plod forward with slow feet and single shots.
He would lean all over Little George and even smaller Ali and maul them and stop them. Or he would just keep them on the end of a long jab with a reach they've never experienced.
It wouldnt even be competitive.

****** argument. If Ali were active today he would train to today's specifications. His immense natural ability would still be present. He was the same height as Usyk, let's see what Fury does with him. The grand statements about what Fury would and would not do are boring, he still has time to actually show us if he can be motivated to do so.

Muhammad Ali and George Foreman, were naturally bigger fighters than Usyk 'They boiled down to their fighting weight, they did not pump themselves up to Heavyweight. Completely different era and culture within training'.
Hardcore Fury fans always **** on about Fury's dimensions, the 20-25 pounds Fury has gained since 2015 has not been muscle mate 'Fury for me is out of condition, and does not want to train like he used to under Peter Fury'.
I am not sure why you seem to think Fury has become this monster mauler all of a sudden, he has only walked forward vs fighters who he out weighs by 40 pounds on average 'Fury never bulled forward vs Whyte, or even a semi-retired Chisora in his last fight'.
Show me a fight, with a top level super Heavyweight were Fury has bulled forward? None, Fury was even backed up all night by Wladimir Kiltschko 'Great win for Fury, but skill for skill a overrated performance'.
So Fury really is not this mauling monster type fighter you are trying to make out, and he does not really have vast experience at world or elite level 'Still he has been ****** about and decked many times'.
Again, I reiterate Fury is ether one fight or one fight away from genuine greatness or his reputation and career being checked big time 'By Oleksandr Usyk'.
Note: You have many hardcore Fury fans have been quiet for sometime, but now I see you are all piping up again since 'Apparently this fight with Uysk has been agreed, and projected for December'.
But there is no official fight date, and in reality the fight has not been 100% agreed 'You may have to pipe down again if Fury backs out again to prolong fight negotiations';.
The fight was only announced to hype Fury latest exhibition fight etc.
