Not a bad opponent for a GBM show, hopefully his next fight on Sky before the end of the year is a big step up.

Jarrell Miller or Jermaine Franklin.

He was out for nearly 3 years with respiratory problems. I think they are going to make sure there are no lingering effects before they really push him. There could be a few more rebuilding fights before we see a step up. He will work his way up to 10 rounders again. A coiple NHL players had the same health issues. Neither have played in 2 years. One officially retired but the other hasn’t. No guarantees Hughie can come all the way back.

His whole career has been comeback fights

Thun fought Harper on a ProBox card and he did not look good at all. Pretty soft touch for Hughie depending on his physical state.

I always thought Hughie got skewered excessively, his resume isn't all that bad in terms of who he's fought (Hammer, Wach, Parker, Povetkin, Pulev, etc). He's not a heavy hitter and he's not the most exciting but he definitely has some skills.
