          Rudenko ain't no slouch,tough fight for young Fury.

          I had Rudenko drawing the Browne fight if I recall correctly.the scores were way too wide that night.

              I agree - I scored it a draw.

                  This would be a step up and a real test for Hughie under any circumstances. Even more so as his comeback fight after a lay-off due to that blood disorder he was suffering from. He must be shaping well in the gym, or they would have lined up someone easier.

                      It is a real step up for the young Fury. Rudenko is hardly a top tier figther but he's way above anyone that Hughie has faced before.

                      This is actually quite intriguing - as has been pointed out Rudenko gave Browne a hard fight and the decision may have leaned slightly towards the Australian in the UK.

                      It is being televised free in the UK and will be getting good viewership I'd imagine, but it's a surprising (and welcome) risk to be taking with young Hughie.

                          good opponent, he's better than anything joshua has faced......tbh the likes of skelton and sprott seem to have lost theyre durability this is better cause this guy is going to probably go the distance.

                              Impressive fight for Hughie to take, he was sick just a little while ago. I had Rudenko edging Browne the wide scorecards did not do justice and show the competitiveness like as in the Abraham vs Smith fight.

                                      Huge step up, this guy Rudenko has run out of Ukrainian cab drivers to fight!
