Dont understand the Parker hype, a decent enough boxer but not world level and Takam exposed his weakness to the left hook.
I think HF could well do with a busy year or 2 back in the swing of things before taking this on, I suspect his team feel the same. I was very impressed with Parker against Ruiz, he coped and adapted well IMO. I think Parker gives Joshua a v difficult nights work and prob stops him. Hughie needs to sharpen up his skills a bit and get focused properly, then he beats all but a few in the division IMO.
I think it's a good fight for both right now. I can't see either beating wilder/AJ/klitschko. Fury can box really well at times and he needs to develop that power, there styles will gel well together and make it an interesting fight. Not sure if h.fury can sell enough tickets for Parker to come over and I can't see hughie flying over there. I'll be surprised if this fight happens and can see wilder saying yes to Parker.
They (Duco) are looking at a stadium event in NZ at some stage. This is Dunedin Stadium (Forsyth Barr Stadium), fully covered, 36,000 capacity. http://d3meewy3gvsdcb.cloudfront.net/1870/forsyth-barr-stadium_26358-cropped_c-l_onkmwbg1.jpg This would be awesome if they pulled off a big name to come down.
In regards to the Fury's, weren't we suppose to get the UKAD outcome in November? Does anybody have any clue what is happening here, all sounds very fishy.
I can't see Wilder saying yes to Parker for two reasons. 1. He is not a scrub level opponent. 2. The WBC only allows a real challenge from a US based fighter at the moment.
Where are all the people gone that were saying Parker dismantles Joshua?? I cant remember who he was but there was someone on here so sure that Parker would destroy Joshua. Now everyone all of a sudden doesn't rate Parker... Back on topic. Hughie Fury can really box, but has the weakest punch in the division. All Parker has to do is sit on his chest and tear Hughie down. Wonder what Hughies Chin is like..
Parker would slowly dismantle Joshua piece by piece over 12 rounds. Before that however it looks like he needs to KO some 22 year old, whose claim to fame is his cousins name in 3.
