Comments Thread For: Hughie Fury Drops, Stops Sam Sexton in Five For British Title

[BigZ44]

He didn't say he wants to defend the British title. He said he wants a world title eliminator as soon as possible.

So I'm hearing, was just going off the article from earlier today

I'm saying I'd like to see him fight Joyce but I don't think he wants that work. However, he said he wants to defend the British title, so the Gorman/Turner winner would at least make for a solid fight

You think joyce would beat hughie?

[Straightener]

Didn’t realise fury is only 23 .

If he keeps his head down he could definatly be world champ one day

Got skills for sure

Admit it, you couldn't stop looking at Hughie's zits. They seem to grow in pairs.

Without seeing tonight's fight, I think yes, Joyce's pressure overwhelms him

I don't know what people see in Joyce. I think he absolutely sucks.

It looks like his boots are leaded. Fury could easily cruise to a decision I think. I may be wrong.

on the flipside, Joyce is pretty slow and clumsy and someone like Hughie that can move and box pretty well could highlight and expose that even more.

A few days ago, when talking about Joyce's style and how he can go for despite looking technically poor at times because there's not really any very good boxer/movers in the HW division to expose that, i was saying that a guy like Tyson Fury might make Joyce look awful if they ever fought down the line. Hughie could possibly do that too, at the level they're at now.

I think Joyce would have more success against the upright/stiff orthodox fighters.

I don't know what to think of him, I see big holes in his game but also positives that are so significant in the HW division that it makes a tough night for most guys. Hughie is the one I've never seen anything in, that performance against Parker was one of the worst displays of aggression I've ever seen in a title fight

Fury looked good for once. At 23 he can still get better.

This is probably correct and while I see a fit Tyson being a terrible matchup for Joyce, I think Hughie would run all night at the first taste of Joyce's shots. Don't think he'd hang around enough to actually get his shots in and win, which he may be able to do with his skills. I think flight instead of fight is his first instinct against someone that can punch
