        I'd rather see Wilder get demolished by Big **** but Fury V Wilder might raise a few eyebrows. As bog average as Hughie is, I'd still fancy him to beat Wilder.

          If we just accept the fact it's going not going to be exciting, how about David Adelaye or Frazer Clarke?
          Risk averse is in all Fury DNA lol. But my point is that he doesn't have time to be risk averse. He could make some cabbage by fighting on Joshua's Saudi undercard against someone like Wardley, even Wilder (as someone in this thread suggested). Maybe take on Ruiz, or Whyte, or Ajagba. Someone with a little bit of brand recognition and not a pushover, and on a card that has lots of eyes o it, like the AJ Ngannou card.

            I'm not sure they would let him anywhere close to one of those cards unless Tyson stipulated it. How about Ali Eren Demirizen? Turkish pressure fighter, it would be interesting to see him chase Hughie all over the ring.

                  I'm not a fan of Tyson Fury, I think he has been given way too much credit for a paper thin body of work. Hughie, like his cousin, does more talking than fighting, but apparently wants to get back in the ring. I reckon Fabio Wardley vs Hughie is an interesting one for both of them. For Wardley, he gets the Fury name on his resume, and this appears to be a reasonable lateral or slight step up at this point in his development. For Hughie, it is not a risk - free fight and he is past the point where he can take two soft touches per year and stay relevant - he needs to take meaningful fights.
                  this could be a reasonable proposition for both of them, andd the winner can take it up a notch (Annderson, sanchez etc) after this.
                  Ahhhhhh, who cares……….
