By Allan Fox: #5 IBF Hughie Fury (21-1, 11 KOs) is next up to potentially face #1 IBF Kubrat Pulev (25-1, 13 KOs) in an IBF heavyweight title eliminator after #3 IBF Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller (21-0-1, 18 KOs) declined to take the fight against the Bulgarian.

By Scott Gilfoid: It’s looking like Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller won’ be taking the IBF heavyweight title eliminator against Kubrat Pulev after all, which puts Hughie Fury as the next possible option for the Bulgarian to fight. Hughie (21-1, 11 KOs) is ranked #5 by the International Boxing Federation. He’s the next option for the 37-year-old Pulev to fight if Miller (21-0-1, 18 KOs) decides he doesn’t want it.
By Dan Fitz-Simons: Hughie Fury (21-1) with 11 KO’s will face a new opponent less than 3 months after winning the British heavyweight (BBB OF C) title by TKO over Sam Sexton. His Dad, Peter Fury, wants to keep him busy, so Hughie should be back in the gym in a week or so. Moreover, his win over Sexton, while not spectacular, proved he’s back on track for bigger fights in the division. What’s changed is that Hughie is sitting down on his punches.
