Comments Thread For: Trainer: Hughie Fury is a Different Fighter Today, Come a Long Way

[deathofaclown]

We don’t know that until he steps up again

He’s fought 3 top 10 guys and come up short, so really after 3 attempts at that level, it might just be a good indicator that he’s not there.

He’s still a very decent fighter though, he’s shown he can at least compete at that level, just not quite good enough to win. And those guys aren’t really close to the real top fighters

So I dunno, I like Hughie and hope he proves me wrong. He’s tough and has some ability but think he just lacks that extra bit to turn competing into winning at a higher level.

Pulev is not top 10.

He still pretty young. Hasn't peaked yet, he could still do something in the future I think.

I wouldn't put all those boxers in the same rating. Chisora is B+, pushed Usyk hard, beat Whyte in the first fight in the eyes of most, robbed blind against Helenius, beat Takam, and generally gives a good fight to anyone.

Takam a couple of years ago would have been B+ as well, but he hasn't done much recently so I'd say B. Kuzmin he has some decent tools, but he's so one-paced, and Molina C-.

I'd have no interest in Hughie vs Molina, he'd win every second of the fight. Kuzmin would be better, but he's so one-paced and Hughie would deal with him easily.

I'd like the Takam fight, but I'd strongly pick Hughie at this stage. Chisora is a 50-50, if he could beat Chisora, especially if he can beat him better than Usyk did, that would be a really good win.

Chisora is B+ for sure but Molina I call C+ because he can crack & beats all the journeymen but is not good enough to beat anyone in the top 25. Kuzmin about C+ in my eyes as well. Takam is 39 & has lost a step. He used to be B+ but maybe B now but he hasn’t beaten anyone other than Forrest in recent years. Ya maybe should have clarified my ratings. To me a C+ level guy is Molina, Hammer, Kauffman, Wach, Rudenko, Price, Duhaupas (used to be B). Experienced guys who beat your journeymen level fighters but don’t win too many above that level. Gatekeepers pretty much. B is a fringe guy in the top 21-30, B+ 11-20, A top 10... that is how I look at it.

Reality is if he were American he’d be just a tough jobbing boxer on the road , a gatekeeper for talented, sponsored prospects . On the wach performance. ? .. just imagine what , fury , Joshua and one 2 other 1st and 2nd tier guys would do to him ..if he were not fury’s cousin and touted by matchroom be honest ,observe him impartially for a time then make up
Your mind on your own ..

[Kpmaryland]

Seems half the people think he has a shot at the top guys. The other half thinks he's garbage. I watched 1 fight he could move a bit if I remember

[Ulver]

Fury is a bum

WAR Chisora will smash Hooey.

Hughie fury is hard to gauge truthfully do i throw em in there with ortiz ruiz to see if contender to put in line for title shot or do we put em in there againat flip hrgovic to give to see where hrgovic is at give them a name and build that next generation fighter to build around n built the pass the torch match vs aj or fury in 2 yrs who knows. If i was promoter id put in vs wilder to see how compromised wilder is after tyson fury fight n build fight upon the fury name if win great we in contention if lose well time to get fed to hrgovic and working on the next generation fighter 5

[Flabble Scrote]

I've always rated him, hes got some talent and a good temperament just needs to increase his strength and power which it looks like hes doing though he still looks pretty weak comparitively
Dont wanna lose that looseness hes got but a lot more strength would help him a lot

[theface07]

It's funny how it says "Trainer" in the title when we all know it should really should say:
