    Another loss for Parker if so
    Guys young and needs to build himself back up if he has title ambitions

    Or maybe he is just cashing in to cash out early

    Now this is going to be controversial and will no doubt enrage the rabid Fury fans but, I actually think Parker is a hard fight for Fury. Parkers output would be a lot higher than Wilders which would translate into Fury more likely getting hit. Parkers engine is decent, his chin is very good and his power is respectable.

    Unless Fury increases his output by some measure from his 6-8 punches per round he threw against Wilder, he might just struggle to get a decision and he ain't KO'ing Parker. I actually think this ESPN deal is going to hurt his momentum.

    Not a good style match up for Parker in my opinion. Parker needs to set his feet to throw his combo's and with Fury constantly changing distance and angles, he's going to be left just trying to pot shot his way inside.

    If Joshua can out box Parker then Fury definitely can, could even be a shut out and if Wilder can't KO Fury, no chance Parker can.

    Parker? Doubt it.

    He's just had a string of losses. Seems crazy to take another super high risk fight.

    Fury's ESPN deal was made to avoid Fighting Wilder in a rematch . Fury Wilder won't happen this year that's for sure . Fury's a smart man this way he won't look like he's scared of Wilder . Probably Fury Wilder won't happen next year either . It's a tough Hard having three year's off from boxin smoking ICE taking COCAINE drinking ALCOHOL . Fury is Mentally weaker don't think he will make it as King of da HEAVYWEIGHT''S . Sneaky way how he steered away from da REMATCH .

    lol, if he fought him after been out for that long with no real prep unless you class the two puddings before Wilder, then I think we can rule out being scared.....He actually won the fight, whats to fear ??? Getting knocked down ??? He just gets up dusts himself off and carries on

    Parker will get absolutely schooled by fury. Why don't Higgins get him a few winnable fights and try carve a world title shot for him (not that he will ever win won again and ever should have won one). He is just cashing out and getting smashed by the big boys for the $$$$.

    Good to see Joseph Parker stepping up & being willing to challenge for the ultimate prize in professional sports - the Lineal H/W Championship of the World.

    A WBO world title, an alphabet unification fight with Joshua & a challenge for the Lineal H/W Championship of the World would make for an impressive list of accomplishments.

    Could of been SP Fury , could of been SP Wilder . But it was a Draw . Really no one won , rematch would of produce a real winner ( most boxin fan's around the world wanted da rematch ) Fury say's he won da fight can't live of that . Wilder didn't win either , Fury said let's do it , But now Fury on his bike riding da other way . Maybe Fury want's 2 or 3 more Fight's for more comfidence before challengeing Wilder again . Why say it than don't do it , A lot of Pride an Money was riding on da Rematch .
