Parker vs. Fury Referee Will Not Change, Says British Board - http://www.BS.com/parker-vs-fu ... rd--120486

Big Terry has Robert Smith's full support. Instead of speaking out against British refs and judges who regularly do a poor job in British fights, he focuses on going after visiting officials like Sammartino, who over the last decade has judged on two cards in the UK.

How does the YouTube thing work with pubs? Can the landlord just get it on there own phone and just stream it in?

With a smart tv. If not there'll be riots up and down The UK if they miss this. Pubs are ordering extra barrels in already.

, who exactly is going to riot about missing this

I'm expecting a terrible fight here with no real action or drama, I think both have got previous for being boring and looking uninspired, Parker was awful against Cojanu, he was in sparring mode for 12 rounds, Fury himself wasn't great against Kassi in his last fight about a year and a half ago

I think Fury can win this on points, I don't rate Parker all that much, he has fast hands and good power when against guys who are there to be hit, Fury fights similar to Tyson, tall, stand up boxer, less power than Tyson but maybe faster and has a cooler head, if he has been fighting with a condition that has fatigued him in his previous fights then hopefully he'll raise his game to another level, ring rust could be an issue for him but he looks like he's been training hard

If pressed i'd go with Parker's aggression to make the difference, maybe nailing Fury with single eye catching shots to take most rounds but I think Fury is a live dog in this one, he could maybe make it look easy, nobody really knows how good Hughie is yet, he lacks power but technically he's sound and he'll have matured in the time out, he wont get flustered and he'll fight calmly

I don't want to come across as your personal psychologist here, but you begin with how boring the fight is going to be, followed by an analysis that makes it seem like a really interesting matchup
I get that there are too many PPV'S lately.
If your patient you might be able to watch it a few days afterwards I'm sure
Plus you will know if it was boring or not. It's all good. Who ever wins will be worth keeping an eye on for the future. The belt is the key to even better ones we will definitely have to bloody pay for

Could be boring , but i think Parker and his camp know a poor performance will see them robbed wether he wins or not , but a stellar performance, especielly a stoppage , could see him propelled into the drivers seat for big money fights . I think he'll go for it , but in all honesty i've not seen much of Hughie to know how he will answer ,

I'll be watching and it might be intriguing but I don't think it will be a great watch, I enjoyed Fury/Klitschko but it wasn't a great watch on a whole and I doubt i'd watch it again, for Hughie to do well i'd imagine he'll need to box smart and not get in any exchanges with Parker

No chance I'm paying for this! I'll watch the next day on YouTube.

It could be intriguing. Parker's team will have worked on a way to beat Hughie. From the training/sparring clips I've seen, Parker is fighting small, plenty of head movement, coming in with fast shots and getting out again. If he sticks to that, it might work against the height and reach of Hughie and defend against his jab. Who knows?
They had a plan against Ruiez, which was to fight on the back foot against the continuous come forward pressure, which worked, and was the first time I've seen Parker do that for nearly 12 rounds. He is usually the come forward guy.
What I don't know is what Hughie will bring. Peter is a good trainer, is capable of formulating a decent fight plan, and Hughie will be in the shape of his career.
Intriguing enough.

Be nice to see Hughie win this after all health troubles

Parker can box, but Hughie going to win this

And the outcome of Hughie winning is that Fr@nk W@rren and the Furys have a belt. The same people who can't organise a HW title fight to save themselves? The same people who can't stand or work cohesively with Matchroom? The same people who call Eddie a cockroach?
Is that good for the HW division?

Just stand back for a second and look at all the crap that has gone on with this fight since May...
The squabble over the venue
The Fury's not wanting to travel
The fact Peter would probably not get into NZ
The absent boxing licence for Hughie
The last minute pull out of Hughie for NZ
The poor ticket sales for the UK
The lack of a TV deal
The atrocious undercard for a PPV
The last minute YouTube PPV
The cost going up to watch with minimal notice
The 3 British judges
The British ref
The British ref now stood down
The stoid down British ref now a judge

If you enjoy all that, then yeah, go Hughie!!

I wonder if there will be any dodgy streams of this on youtube or whether youtube will shut them all down. Im not paying £10 to watch Hughie Fury vs Parker and im okay with paying for most fights.

Id rather watch Joshua fight the winner of Wilder-Ortiz anyway.

I have paid for every ppv the last five years apart from the two Eubanks fights. I won't pay for this. If it's on my kids firestick I'll watch and if not I won't. I predict a points win for hughie 116-112 . No much action

It's only $10 in the US, so I'll buy it.
I'll wait until the day of the fight because I have little confidence in any fight actually occurring.
