[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

London - Hughie Lewis Fury is in action this Sunday afternoon as he faces Dorian Darch at York Hall, Bethnall Green, London, on Miranda Carter's 'Sunday Rumble.'

The 19-year-old heavyweight bids to improve his perfect professional record to 10 straight victories when he enters the ring with the tough and durable 29-year-old, Darch.

Hughie has been sparring alongside the likes of his older cousin Tyson Fury, former IBF world cruiserweight champion Steve “USS” Cunningham and “Fast” Eddie Chambers and will be looking to give his best performance to date.

Since when is Hughie hottly tipped to beat the record? lol

Hughie won't break the record, there isn't going to be a champion as weak as berbick in 18 months time for him to fight

Hughie should be ready for an English title fight by late spring, but I'd like to see him fight David Howe 1st for the central area title.

I thought Darch was fighting some Belgium for the WBC youth title, which seemed strange seeing as he's 29!

I used to stay in youth hostels that were 18-30. Maybe they're using that criteria.

Whether he breaks the record or not, at least he's having a go. He will not be chasing domestic titles. Peter is trying to keep Hughie busy and gradually step up the level of competition but I know he has had a nightmare trying to get fights for Hughie.

Hughie has skills looks like a well schooled boxer.

Sparring a 90-year-old man would be tough sparring for that bum, hughie fury.

Darch might be the first lad with the balls to make it a fsemi-fight...he's nothing special but tough and fit enough to stick around for a few rounds and make Hughie work up a sweat.

He's been club-fighting in Welsh sports halls but more than a few hard nuts have come off that gritty little circuit and either gone onto really big things or at least shown-up with an attitude and forced a fancied fighter to soak-up a couple of proper whacks and pick-up their first bumps.

Hughie, Cornish and Lewison will all get acquainted with each other in the back-end of 2014 and we'll get a good steer on who is real or not.
