    Awful fight but better than nothing considering the situation. Not their fault the Fury's did what they did.

    Thought I heard something about the WBO extending it due to the circumstances... Guess not.

    The opponent had to be in the WBO top 15. Browne isn't and was never going to be cut any slack either.

    What could Duco do on such short notice, seriously? They needed someone who was WBO top 15 rated who could literally just jump straight on a plane.

    This sucks, though if they can get through it quickly then this unification in July with Wilder idea could make up for it

    Only one person to blame for this poor matchup on - Highie Fury for pulling out on such short notice and screwing Duco in the process.

    Duco were limited to someone who was WBO top 15 and able to jump straight on a plane. Didn't leave them many options.

    Apparently Tyson Fury put up his hand for the fight :D

    Imagine a second Fury no-show for the same fight :duh

    I'll still be watching. Even if it's just to check out Junior Tszyu on the undercard.

    They were never going to extend it for Browne because of his PED history imo.

    Duco were limited to someone who was WBO top 15, currently in training and able to jump straight on a plane. Didn't leave them many options.

    Who would you have chosen???

    Can't criticise the fight as it is a last minute replacement.
    Parker should breeze through him then. Hopefully it's a quick one and Parker come out unscatched, then he call Wilder out.
    I really hope Wilder is next. So many matches to look forward to. It adds more to an already stacked year of boxing.
