    He's certainly a physical specimen, looks a natural HW to me. Didn't seem to have much power behind those punches for his size but could be interesting if he went into training full time.

    ...That right hand Mike Tyson put Botha down with back in the day is one of favourites, can feel the impact every time i see it.

    Wouldn't worry yourself unnecessarily. Hughie will likely be going to sleep if he turns up.

    Peter just tweeted he's doing an interview with Kugan to discuss the antics of this fight.

    It's defo not going ahead. If not, I'm done with the Fury's. I was a big fan as well.

    The Fury clan where nothing is as it seems or should be. I really hope this fight goes ahead but have been doubtful from the beginning as they love to **** people about.

    It cant possibly be the Fury's standing up for themselves and not standing for any rubbish like spongy rings?

    I noticed ticket sales have been poor, could this be the reason for the venue move. Maybe its Duco trying to get it moved to the UK?

    Regardless, lets wait and see what Peter says in his interview.

    Can someone post a link to Kugan's interview when it happens?

    MarkK is Junior Fa's manager. Probably regarding sparring or gym stuff.

    I've still seen nothing of any substance that suggests otherwise.

    Don't worry pow, Parker is an honourable man and won't try any fishy business.

    The result of this one will probably be decided by two judges - Parker's fists.

    I believe that wholeheartedly as well. I hope both Parker and Fury get random drug testing done before the fight. Fury will arrive here in NZ later than expected but there's still time for both fighters to be tested as I hear he will here at least a week before fight night. Hopefully the results of that test can be confirmed before the fight as well as was the case with Povetkin/Stirverne. Im sure both fighters will test negative to any PEDs and this will be just an added entry to Parkers non-doping record.

    Still no sign of Peters interview but Hughie looking pretty relaxed.
