    Which of the two is going farther?

    Who beats whom now?

    Who beats whom down the road when they are more developed?

    Parker seems to have more potential IMO; speed, balance, technical consistency.

    That's a no brainer. Parker is the better prospect, with more power and skills.

    I actually expect Huggie to lose his next fight on the Golovkin undercard.

    Hughie looks very wobbly and uncoordinated like his brother tyson. Parker on the other hand has better footwork and skills.

    Hughie is bigger and younger do, but for now I'm going with Parker. Hughies jab-hook to the body is pure power, much like Helenius.

    Parker for now. Hughie has been sick, but has been getting well and will soon be back in the ring.....................Fury is still top 10 fighter, no doubt about it................

    Hughie could end up better than tyson. He puts his punches together well, very smooth fighter and also seems to have his brain switched on. I can't see hughie getting caught recklessly like tyson does. However at the moment Parker is a full set man, he is strong and punches like a mule. Parker is better fighter right now. Hughie needs to pack muscle onto his 6'6 frame.

    Hughie's health has gotten so much better, he was fighting sick. I expect to see him as one of the best heavyweights in the world, fairly soon...............

    More will be handed to Fury. Parker will achieve more.

    If Parker keeps on winning impressively.........................I just have not seen enough of Parker to judge, but from what I have been reading and hearing about him is impressive.....................
