Wow, Hughie really is a bum. That guy he's fighting is #260 on boxrec. This is even bigger cherry pick than German cab driver Schwarz from fat Fury

[EnglishOxide]

Yawn.

At least fight a British top 10 guy ffs.

Never heard of Chris Norrod and looking at his record it's worse than tom Shwartz padded out record , why drag yourself down this low ? You will fight at his level and never improve and If you ko him in a round you also learn nothing ..we know it's a business but this really is a waste of time , and being on tv the public see it for what it is and what little fan base he's got will dwindle even further , if he's as good as he thinks he is FFS make progresive fights, gain respect and use this terrestrial platform to enhance your stock, confidence and experiencewe . We know channel 5 hasn't the greatest budget but show some ambition ..

"long awaited" lol

Chris Norrad Who The Fook Is That Guy Boxrec Breakdown:

35yrs old. Been a pro for a decade.

17-0 (8) record. 10-0 (4) vs guys with a winning record. 4-0 (3) vs guys with no pro W's.

Best W is probably vs Abraham Pascual (12-5) in his last fight (W6). Pascual is 2-5 vs guys with winning records.

Pretty inactive in recent years. Hughie will be only his 8th fight from Mar. 2012 to May 2019 (7yrs & 2mos).

Most of his career has been sub 210lbs. 10 fights are under 200lbs or n/a. 2 fights between 201-210lbs. And 5 fights (5-0, 2KO's) at 211lbs or more.

Even Hughie Fury don't give a f#ck about his career anymore apparently.

Holy **** what a terrible fight, you'd have to pay me Hughie's purse just to watch this fight

[thack]

Pretty pointless.......
