    He's butthurt, nothing to see here.

      I'm looking forward to the July Manchester date, not overly confident Wlad will win though, I think the only par of that fight I draw confidence from is Fury's lack of power gives Wlad another full 12 rounds to put more than 1 punch together this time, I think if he lands two consecutive blows Fury will sleep until the turn of the decade.

        hardly. There are a few scattered member's who are fan's on here from what ive seen, hardly a cult.
        The only cult's on here are mayweather and fury fan's (who you see throughout this thread arguing a very poor case that fury deserves xy and z, and make a new thread every day about how one is TBE and the other is a gypsy incarnation of Ali.
        About half of the forum doesn't even know/has never even seen parker...

            Hughie Fury is not currently on Parkers level

            I do feel parker is overrated but the younger Fury is still not there yet

              Hughie has fists of fluff, it runs in his family.

              Whatever Steve, butt hurt because Parker fights his eliminators against dangerous opposition and will be mandated before Fury loses his belt ?

                Not in this world.
                Takam is significantly better than anyone on Hughie's resume to date.

                Stop hating on the man. He's a solid fighter who got where he is through hard work and dedication.

                  Joshua has beaten 3-4 unbeaten fighters on the bounce incl. who was an IBF champion and ranked well within the top 10.

                  Don't get me wrong, Takam is a tough guy and all. But i'd say Dillian Whyte is every bit as good and that'll show.
                  Beating TT is better than anything Whyte or Martin have done, by a long chalk. Plus, Takam's had competitive showings against Perez (argument that he won that one) and Povetkin. Yes, he's proven, far more so than Martin or Whyte.

                  If either man surpasses him in their careers then I'll reassess my opinions. But until then, the onus is on them to prove themselves.

                    How you described Whyte could be put on Takam as well. Not many skills, just strenght. Whyte's skills are better + he's bigger.
                    How do you determine that his skills are better? Who has he fought that demonstrates that? Takam's fought one of the most proven guys in the division in Povetkin, and been very competitive against him. He's also beaten another solid guy in Thompson. His size is irrelevant.

                    Your fanboyism of Whyte is baffling.

                      And takam proved in the Povetkin fight that he's not crap either. Plus he actually has wins and competitive showings over far better fighters than Brian Minto and random Brazilians.
