    Sorry;

    I try and never ask this question because everyone seems to ask but I just jumped on and was wondering if someone could tell me when this is scheduled to start for PST in Murica?

    Thank you in advance.

    Literally the only thing he has going for him is his chin.

    No, I like Joseph, I just don't think he will hold that title long.. As for Hughie, he's boxed no one and shouldn't really be getting a shot on his resume.. the Rudenko win years ago remains his standout performance.. Parker should beat Fury, but it's possibly the worse title fight at heavyweight for decades.

    He's a smaller and (marginally) quicker Mariusz Wach.

    Even that's debatable, I doubt he could outbox Teper like Mariusz just did.

    A young Colonel Bob Sheridan is the commentator for Robinson vs Fullmer 1, I did not realize that till just now.

    I'd otherwise root for Parker, but as a bettor trying to be objective I'm on the underdog Fury. Fury simply has the better hand and foot speed, and Parker's defence was really exposed against Takam and Ruiz. As Fury banks rounds I also see Parker getting frustrated and easier to hit, it's not like he's shown great tactics and ability to adjust.

    I have the lowest possible expectations for this as a fight after Parker-Ruiz. I am not a fan of heavyweight boxing--as long as we have some fans who say they don't like little guys I like to throw that in. Wouldn't watch this if the cruisers and Linares weren't on not long after.

    Whilst the undercard hasn't been action packed, you can't deny it has been at least competitive.
