    I like Parker (Fury, too) but the obvious result is Fury on Points.

    Neither have the strength (Fury) nor the reach, weight (Parker) to knock the other out. Stalemate.

    Still watch it though, just in case of the unexpected occurring.

    If the likes if Cunnigham, Pajkic, Flirtha McDermott and Wilder can hit and hurt Tyson then I reckon the more accurate puncher and much more faster puncher in Parker will be able to.

    I like your enthusiasm.....dreams rarly become reality.

    But this will be a absolute stinker of a fight with Parker hitting air and Fury throwing a handful pittay patty punches while clowning around., unless Fury strokes out from a hear attack in the middle of the Ring Parker has next to zero chance here, he will be completely befuddled by Furys movement and non engaging.

    Parker hasn't beaten someone of vague note convincingly since Dimitrenko.

    Pointless fight, will be boring and a waste of time.

    Parker was only worth being an opponent when he had a belt....no point otherwise as he isn't very good, and he won't get any mandatory status from it.

    Parker shouldn't rush into this fight. He is young enough to rebuild properly.

    Who is fury going to fight for mandatory status? WBC he’s withdrew from a mandatory position.
    IBF have Pulev ready and waiting.
    WBA May make this miller fight the mandatory.
    Only really leaves the WBO and Dillian Whyte to take on...

    I’m not saying he should fight to become mandatory. I’m talking solely on what Parker offers

    Pretty much applies to most available boxers though.

    Maybe, but I’m talking about Parker

    But at least there are maybe a couple of fighters who would provide a good fight

    I’m not trying to dig you out here but who would the fighters be Who would provide the good fights?

    I think the top 3 against anyone else in the division is a foregone conclusion except maybe Povetkin and Whyte vs Wilder.

    Ortiz, Whyte, Povetkin, Rivas, Kownacki, even someone like Hunter
