    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.
    Its probably as mch to do with Peter. Hes not allowed in America yet.

    Peter Fury can't complain about fighters pricing themselves out against Hughie then turndown these shots against Wilder/Joshua. If he's not ready, fine. But a young undercard fighter only gets ducked because they're worth two bob.

    At the time Hearn asked Hughie had a date scheduled on March 26th and a world ranked fighter who had agreed lined up.

    We wont every presume anything here again we can only give opinions , I mean who would have thought you could win a HW title on points landing 7 punches a round.
    It just goes to show anything can happen , but I don't buy Hughie is anything more than holding on the tailcoat of his cousin.

    Bit of a difference fighting in front of a few thousand on Eubank jr's undercard on Spike TV to being part of the headline act at a packed O2 on Sky PPV.

    It doesn't matter though, it worked out for the best, obviously Martin for the "world" title is a much, much bigger deal than chinning Hughie.

    Do not tell me this will be ppv!
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
