    Read my sentence again, the one that you quoted.

    "Wilder doesn't bring to the table what the UK heavyweights can."

    Joshua, Fury, Haye and even now Bellew bring big money and draw, vastly more than Wilder does. That was my point, I'm not bothered about Parker he's not a draw the same as Wilder.

    Gelt is a slang term for money.

    It is if your hitting fresh air all night, though Hughie Fury has many more advantages over Parker than just Ring IQ.

    The sum total of Hughie's advantages won't add up to enough to beat Parker.

    They will as Parker is too flat footed, goes in straight lines to much, doesn't carry a big punch - no does Hughie but has far better movement ring IQ and would win comfy over 12 rounds

    Hughie won't see the 12th round.

    It is conceivable Hughie will be ahead on the cards when Parker finishes him though.
