By Scott Gilfoid: Undefeated heavyweight prospect Hughie Fury (16-0, 8 KOs) will be fighting next month against an opponent still to be determined on the undercard of the Wladimir Klitschko vs. Tyson Fury on October 24th at the ESPRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany. Hughie, 20, is the nephew of Tyson Fury.
Hughie’s opponent likely won’t be anyone dangerous because he’s still being matched up against weak opposition at this point in his career. There’s talk of Hughie eventually fighting 35-year-old “Big” John McDermott in the near future, but it’s unclear whether that fight will take place as soon as October 24th.
