Former British heavyweight champion and former world title challenger Hughie Fury 21-2 (11 KOs) makes his much anticipated return to the ring this Saturday evening when he appears on a Hennessy Sports show at the Victoria Warehouse in Manchester. Hughie is returning from his brave effort last October when he was forced to fight an IBF eliminator against Kubrat Pulev in Sofia, despite suffering a terrible cut only weeks prior to the fight.. Fury dropped a decision, having had to battle much of the twelve rounder with the handicap of the reopened cut.. The opponent on this occasion is Canadian Chris Norrad 17-0 (8 KOs) a former lumberjack who really hasn’t mixing in any kind of company to prepare him for this.. The Colourful press release to promote the fight used Norrads occupation eloquently, stating that Norrad expects to Chop Fury down and holler ‘Timber’ over the Huge brits fallen body.. The realism is much different, Fury is expected to get precious rounds with Norrad, but halt the show pretty much when he feels.. Fury’s father-trainer Peter insists that we still haven’t seen the best of his son.. He’s still a baby and has had a priceless apprenticeship, fighting some of the worlds best heavyweights in such a short time.. The best years are to come.
