Thread: Statement fight for Hughie Fury, he takes on Rudenko!

H. Fury vs. Rudenko Added To Golovkin-Murray 2/21 Show - Boxing News

That Rudenko gave a good account of himself vs Browne. Hughie had a tough 2014 but he is a good fighter who had potential. If he gets through this one in better style than Browne, then people need to take note. I'm happy he's taking a decent challenge and this will be on channel 5 too, it's on the GGG-Murray undercard!

Fury takes On Tough Andriy Rudenko feb 21st - article I did

I really like the Fury boys. Let's fight first and BS about it later!
Maybe I should have said I really like Hughie Fury. I remember Tyson doing a lot of talking, but they both love to fight.

6'6 20 year old vs 31 year old that is 6'0

However Rudenko did take Lucas Browne the distance which I would assume means he can take a punch.

Yeh he sure can

i thought browne struggled with him and scraped through it

it is a tough fight for fury

Is this still happening? Sure I read it was off

If not you can get 5/1 for Rudenko. Pretty sure I had him beating Browne. Either way he can punch a bit and take a punch. Young Hughie has looked a powderpuff hitter so far.

It's on. There's no way Hughie loses this, his boxing ability is miles better than Browne's and he's six inches bigger than Rudenko. He will control him with the range and hurt him with combos. Hughie puts his punches together, not like Browne who's looking for that one big shot.

Yes sir!! That's what I like about the Fury boys, they like to fight!
If they didn't have older, more experienced, and cooler heads in camp there's no telling who the might be challenging! What I mean is, they would be wasting their time fighting every fighter who winked at them.
I LIKE 'EM, A LOT!!! Cheers, y'all👍

Even with the layoff, Hughie still has all the time in the world. He's still only 20.

I will say that Hughie needs to stop keeping his left hand by his waist.

Browne and Rudenko could have gone either way, but I think the fact is they both suck Tyson Fury would toy with Rudenko quite easily, if Hughie has some similar ability and size it's probably a smart fight to take.

Hughie is not as good as Tyson and I think he will not go as far. He is fighting on channel 5 free tv!

He's only 20 , still a very very long time to develop for a heavyweight. When most of their peak years are in their 30s

True but compared to Tyson he does seem less confident.
