    Hughie will go down like Monica Lewinsky.

    Idk, the word out of the fury camp has always been that hughie is the better fighter. Time will tell because I haven't investigated enough, or at all really

    Parker by mid round KO. Fury has has possibly the worst prep for this fight possible, hasn't fought in almost a year and a half and when he did fight he won by tech decision.

    Parker is a very good fighter, whereas Fury is a British fan fantasy creation as for being a legit contender.

    Hughie fury is a good boxer, watch his movement befuddle Parker.

    Just like he knocked out Cojanu the Romanian lorry driver, and Andy Ruiz the obese plodder then?

    Yes Parker sure is a "power puncher" at a high level

    This has a dull UD win for Hughie written all over it. 116-112 or 117-111

    Parker will have to fight much better, with a better work rate than his last couple of fights to KO Hughie. He is very much capable but I've got a feeling Hughie will make it a very awkward night. Parker should win though.

    Agreed - he has not looked his best lately

    Needs a STATEMENT

    Can't see Hughie having the power to trouble Parker. Parker wins it in a methodical beatdown.

    If Fury is significantly improved from fixing his health issues then maybe he is a live dog. Conjanu suggests Parker isn't packing the shots to take him out.

    Team fury, including Tyson, always claimed hughie was/is the fury with the real talent and is on a whole other level than Tyson.

    I never doubted it because i never saw anything in Tyson except size

    Watch and see...

    Team Parker will put out their usual - he has full recovered from his elbow issues and is looking amazing in training and is going to make a huuuuuge statement.

    Then if he struggles again the elbow will be the reason haha.

    No idea on how this one goes. A loss for Parker won't be all bad if he breaks away from Kevin Barry.

    parkers my favorite boxer but he didn't look good in his last fight . as for the ruiz fight. I don't think parker looked bad. I just think ruiz is a lot better then people thought/gave him credit for . if he lost some more weight he would be a real force. hopfully parker wins this. but I also would like him to split from barry. it doesn't seem like hes improving under him any longer :(

    Parker has not looked good lately, I think he can knock Hughie out, but it all depends on how much Hughie has improved since his illness. Hughie can box, but Parker has had the better competition. Hope Parker can get a fair decision in UK..................

    Size and a world title belt.

    What has Hughie shown thus far?
