If fury doesn't freeze and box's using his speed and skill he will school parker who really is just a rugby type tough guy .He could get robbed if it goes to the cards though.
Rugby type rough guy? He's been boxing since he was 4. Did he school Rudenko and Kassi? No way he did. Rudenko is average but still had Huggie reeling back running away from looping overhand rights. Kassi had him cut and looking average also. Huggie is taking 2 steps up...but sure he'll school Parker....sure he will.
Hughie will obviously try to box on the backfoot for as long as he can. If he can't make Parker respect his power it's going to get very ugly. He's not feather-fisted but seems to lack the jolting power other successful big men have relied upon to keep pressure fighters at bay. He'll be forced to tick a lot of other boxes at the first time of asking if he's going to get the decision and stave off a KO. Punch resistance, cardio, tenacity, devil and most importantly composure under pressure - ability to tie up without becoming ragged/open. A fighter who has yet to tick any of those boxes under the lights, at the top level against a fighter who has is gambling by taking a fight like this. That's not to say he wont, but Peter Fury's rolling the dice with this fight. To turn the tables on Parker, he's yet to demonstrate KO power against A level opposition and was soundly deadlocked by a smaller boxer in Ruiz jr. I'd love for this to be a coming out party for Fury #2 but the best case outcome I can see is a messy, close decision win. I don't think the worst case scenario of a bad KO plays out but Parker will be too much too soon imo.
Parker looked impressive in his early fights in NZ fighting local tough guys and idiots but has looked less impressive as he has fought better opponents .his last fight was very Poor he looked one paced and one dimensional.is Fury the man to take his title ? we shall soon find out.
Hughie is going to outbox Parker much worse than Tyson did to Wlad. Parker's style if all right for Hughie.
We'll see. I know one thing... As soon as Parker takes on guys like Joshua, Ortiz, Wilder etc...he won't last very long.
That's the point aye. I mean only for this fight Fury is way overrated. Yes he is a better boxer, but he ain't going to do ****. I think people forget that although Parker's skills have been exposed and it doesn't look like he can get much better, he is still battle hardened.
Hughie doesn't deserve it. He's unworthy. The gods of boxing are vengeful & will rain down hell-fire upon him. Parker by kayo.
Hughie has a style which makes his opponents look bad ! To be fair his opponents so far at best have been average and Parker is better than that but both are pretty untested.
