Round-By-Round - Joseph Parker (c) vs. Hughie Fury - September 23rd 2017

[Emmseegee]

With the way he is moving around I could easily believe that Mickey Vann is wearing a Hughie Fury costume tonight.

rd10 fury

[dookus]

Impossible to score 8th. I'll say 4-3-1 Parker

9th better for both, Fury showing a good chin. 5-3-1 Parker

5-4-1 Parker

[brilo33]

have it 3.3 after rd10

[Neil Gee]

5-3-2 to Fury. Yawn.

Difficult to say for sure who is winning from the stream I'm watching. Picture quality sucks and I can't see what is landing and what is not. It seems an even fight. From what I'm seeing in this thread I'd guess a Fury win by a close margin, a Parker win by a close margin or a draw would all be acceptable?

Same here - UK commentary doesn't help

[adamwillan]

Fury surely can't win this fight, it would be the biggest strain of a world title ever.

I'm saying Parker is up thinly

[paddy chavez]

Great feet doesn't involve running around the ring, it is getting out of distance and in to land your shot. He has no intention of trying to land other than the counter jab

Great feet is making the other guy miss and not being a target .... that's what Hughie is doing

[keithmoonhangover]

6-4 Parker

[TempleSlave]

Parker doesn't really look like a champion but if Fury takes it, he'll be an awful one. Feather fisted runner pretending to be Muhammad fukin Ali

To me that's running and great feet keeps you in a position to fire back when they miss...which he isn't doing

[chad]

Is this the final round? I'm so pissed and the stream is so blurry

[brilo33]

rd11 parker

[keithmoonhangover]

7-4 Parker for me.

[Grilling Machine]

I've Parker four ahead after 11.

I guess not

[greg]

Yawn

[brilo33]

got parker 4,3 after rd11

[Neil Gee]

I wondered if Fury could keep this up all night. Unfortunately, he can. I have him winning it if it goes to points.

[Nightmare Roy]

These score cards will be interesting

[Tarkus]

Parker need to try and drop Fury in the last. Based on the terrible biased referring and even worse commentary you can imagine what judges will do.

No doubt he'll get jobbed here, surprised he agreed to come.

Must admit that I agree, i admire good defensive boxing more than most but theres not enough coming back for me to enjoy Furys approach. Some decent uppercuts but far too negative for me to appreciate his 'movement'. At the very least i would like to see more right hands following on from his jabs. Flicking the jab out all night with no intention to follow up with anything worthwhile.

Suppose I should add that although I havent enjoyed his tactics, I reckon Fury has done enough here.
