PARKER vs FURY - Expect a Knockout

If Hughie isn't willing to trade and runs, holds & spoils all night, the judges should score accordingly.

If Parker can't light him up, he needs to apply steady pressure & hope he gets rewarded for taking the fight up.

As defending champ, he should be.

 

Agree. There is a reason Team Fury has pumped big money into this bout given it's very low level of marketability. They will be controlling everything they can to get Hughie the decision.

From a Parker perspective that belt should be valued at much higher than $2 million. But his promotional team is splitting and I guess they have legal fees they need to pay.

Can't see a Hughie knockout being a possibility given Parker has never been wobbled.

 

Agreed. Pretty much looking forward to a dreary type fight with maybe 3 to 5 good exchanges. Lots of posing and lots of covering up while the opponent does something type bout.

 

Parkers team must know how tough it'll be to win a decision, as many here suggest

I hope Parker takes Hughie out in grand fashion.

I am somewhat looking forward to it, but it's nothing like the upper tier heavyweight fights

The marketability of the winner ought to be somewhat substantial

 

Lol, Parkers screwed if he needs a knockout to win. Because he certainly ain't stopping Fury, soon as the bell ends in the 12th round. The gypsy crooks will snatch that title from Parkers corner, and hand it to the British fighter! Poor Joseph should have taken Deontay's most generous offer, when it was presented. Now live with the consequences and have your title stripped on youtube!

 

Parker has more than enough in his locker to stop Fury.

 

Andy Ruiz Jr's credentials weren't much better .... and he almost beat Parker.
Cojanu went the distance !
Parker's recent form doesn't suggest he's a massive level up from the likes of Hughie Fury, although I'm sure he's determined to show us otherwise.

 

Hopefully Fury is on the receiving end.

 

The hometown boxer should not own the judges, but Parker is getting tricked into fighting in Hughie's home town. Parker will have to knock Hughie out to get a draw. Parker has power, but he has been sloppy lately. Ruiz, Jr. is a very fast and good heavyweight, where has he been?

 

Dimitrenko was garbage. A-grade Eurotrash.

Can't believe he's gone back home and strung a bunch of wins together.

He's useless. A clothesline could beat him.

Parker won't get it that easy.

 

Yet he has a better resume than Hughie.
