    Why not have the fight where the BIGGEST most prestigious fights of all time happen? Fighting either in the UK or NZ is to advantageous to whoever is fighting at home. Now I don't know why Fury pulled out, maybe he had an injury, but the kid is 22. Relax, and let's just hear what's going to happen next.

    The Fury's have pulled this kind of **** WAY too much... **** them. Load of BS. Parker should carry on and fight someone else.

    STFU, Tyson Fury has nothing to do with Hughie. And Tyson pulled it once, after it happened to him a million times. Did you forget that Haye, Wlad, and Chisora pulled out against him?

    Hughie wasn't ready for a step up like this anyway. He's saved himself some embarrassment. Even though he has caused himself plenty in the process.

    Wait this fight is still on isn't it?

    As long as it has neutral appointed judges who cares...

    I think it could be a really close fight. If it's THAT close then just rematch in the UK...not hard is it?

    I don't know if you've been living under a rock lately. Constant canceled fights, false promises and other shady BS from team Fury in general.

    Nope, apparently got cancelled minutes ago.

    Also, don't think there'd be nearly as big a market for it in US as in NZ or GB.

    STFU until we hear the facts. What cancelled fights? And don't bring team fury into it. This is about Hughie. Tyson obviously has mental issues, and he's been ****ed over so many times that at this point I'm giving him a pass for whatever the **** he wants to do. Especially to those who did the same to him like Haye or Wlad.

    That's true but the hometown advantage for NZ or UK is too unfair. Especially for Hughie who isn't a hard hitter. I get it, Parker is the "champ", but unless you got Spence type power going to the UK, it's pretty foolish IMO to go to another country risking your 0 with little power.

    22 year old Hughie decided he wants another couple of bouts probably..meh.

    Furys will blame it on no market

    Everyone else will blame it on Furys

    If Hughie was going to win anyway it would have been a close decision...

    This isn't a one time thing. So Team Fury doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. Many have been saying this would happen for weeks now...

    Time to dispel this rather convenient myth about judging in New Zealand:

    Of the 6 judges in those 2 close fights Parker won against Takam and Ruiz in New Zealand there was only 1 New Zealand judge.

    The NZ judge scored the Takam fight and had it closer for Takam than the 2 overseas judges did.

    Don't respond if you can't name all these cancellations Fury has had. And if he did cancel, let's give reasons why he did. If you can't, just stfu, and stop responding.

    That's irrelevant. The promoters are the ones that pay and hire the judges. Judging in favor of the big promoters boxer gives you a better chance of getting invited back.
