Comments Thread For: Hughie Fury vs. Sam Sexton Finalized For May 12 in Bolton

[BigZ44]

Boring fight that Fury will win 117-111 or 118-110

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Fury would be favorite to out box Sexton.

However, Sexton is brave and can **** a bit so I think it could be an interesting fight.

Sexton can’t punch at all, I don’t think he even has 10 KO’s on his record

Had to look it up, he has 9. Only 1 actual KO though, Looks like mostly ref stoppages....and considering all his fights have been in England where they prematurely stop fights......

oh, and in his last 4 fights his opponents have carried a combined record of 53-74-11, So I think it's safe to say that Sexton's sparring partners don't wear headgear.

Dude had to go 12 rounds with Tomas Mrazek (10-68-6) for christ sakes. How bad is Hughie's confidence after the Parker loss?

It’s a pretty big step down, I think it’s more about picking up the belt as opposed to the opponent. We’ll be getting all that BS about how the British title is “the most prestigious in boxing”😂😂

Oh, its up there with the Canadian heavyweight Championship, which I'm pretty sure I could turn pro tomorrow, get back into fighting shape for and have a competitive fight for....and I haven't had a match in ten yars lol

Fair point, but he likely hits harder than Fury does.

Glad to hear boxing is back on ITV 5. I use to get it here with my Superchannel package. Watched many Tyson Fury fights there. Sexton is a decent opponent for Fury after the title fight loss. A big step down from Parker but still not a bad domestic fight. Itv 5, Sky Sports & Dave tv all offering fights. I hope fights can be made between promoters.

I wouldn't mind seeing Hughie fight Joyce.

There could of been some good fights for the title but the best Canadians don’t bother. I like Neven Pajkic but he’s been long retired. Now you have Mladen, simon kean, teslenko, franz rill, Braidwood & that new russian. None of them fight each other & most of them won’t be bothered. Teslenko has already moved on to Dibella. Kean just beat Alexis Santos for the IBO international belt. It’s too bad as it would have been great watching a few of them battle it out for the canadian belt to gain experience. It’s all about the undefeated record now.

debatable. This is going to look like a match between two giant flyweights.

I'm not watching unless they bring back the stinger!
