    I'm not sure things are much different these days to how they've always been. One difference is the ready availability of fighters records, history and footage for fans.

    I think in the past even serious fans would see a fighter with an impressive record like - 20-0 (18 KOs) and automatically think he must be tasty even though we had never seen him. These days it takes two minutes to find out whether or not the impressive numbers mean anything.

    Peter Fury turned the date down for Hughie. Hearn said they could defend against him if they want it in the summer.

    Imagine how big AJ-Tyson Fury would be after AJ has ironed Hughie?

    You don't think Hughie's power will bother AJ ?
    or do you think AJ can walk through Hughie's tickling stick assault ?

    Probably a bit of both. Hughie does not hit hard and Aj has serious power.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hughie is not in the class of Tyson.

    Not sure about that. I rate Hughie , but he's been in limbo the last couple of years. He needs to move forward and fast.
    I didn't like him turning down a title fight because he wanted to have a good Christmas though.
    He has to step out of Tyson's shadow and make his own name. I think he's capable.

    Tyson didn't look great, the rogan fight seemed to be a step up and then he looked good against chisora

    Hughie looks every bit as good as Tyson did at that stage of his career
