BS fight imo, Fury isn't even ranked in the top 25

Hughie Fury is a joke and a fake and a fraud not ranked anywhere

Hughie is not a top contender and is a joke. But Parker is not a top contender either. Two clowns in a meaningless scrap.

Or more simply everyone including media is gagged, I truly hope Fury's suspension is over by the time this fight takes place, I wouldn't begrudge him using PED's either to even it up after he looked like shyt versus Kassi when he clearly wasnt using.

Fury's empowered an high court QC, you don't pay out that kind of money unless you've got yourself in deep.

well if the fight does go through & he is making >1mil for it.. so he can afford himself a good lawyer to defend his case.. It wouldn't surprise me if BBBoC doesn't take any action all tbh..

I think Hughie Fury has a good chance in this fight.

It's the WBO HW division, what do you expect?

This fight is going ahead because Haye pulled to fight Bellew..

The David Haye that attained his lofty #1 ranking by beating Mark deMori and Arnold "the cobra" geksplomfkak or wtf is name was.

WBO heavyweight champion means absolutely shyte all

You can still appreciate the fight as two undefeated top contenders though right ? I'm stoked for the fight.

I think he's suspended as we speak soon not to be in time for fight night but I have my doubts this fight goes ahead. He's had long enough out now so should no longer have PED's in his system, he looked shyt versus Kassi he couldn't have used them that night likely why he looked so poor as the fight wore on, dude looked pretty desperate before the cut and looked relieved when his uncle told him the fight would be stopped during the next round.

I can appreciate it for that yeah, but i wont be blinding myself with the ahem "prestige" of the WBO belt.

It'll be nice actually to see a bit more of parker, I only really caught the **** show that was dimitrenko and Hughies fights are difficult for me as Im not a boxnation subscriber and his fights dont get a huge amoutn of promotion for me to know when to get a stream up.

The claims about the fail test dated back 2 years ago. Tyson won the HW crown & now his cousin is getting a fight for Tyson's vacated title. If nothing has happened in this amount of time then I doubt anything will. Let's not forget Peter Fury is probably well connected & some may be hesitant to step on his toes. As far as I'm concerned they didn't fail any tests except Tyson for coke so until they are actually suspended & found guilty it is time to turn the page...

Well irrespective of what anyone feels..

FACT 1:

The world heavyweight champ is being probed by officials after traces of a banned anabolic steroid were allegedly discovered in a sample taken last year.

His cousin Hughie, a fellow heavyweight boxer, also allegedly tested positive for the substance.

Both Fury, 27, and his cousin have denied any *wrongdoing.

Test samples understood to have been taken between February and March last year, ahead of Fury’s first bout with the former champ, sparked the probe by UK Anti-Doping officials.

It is understood Fury and his cousin then attended a meeting in September, when he was told the levels of the steroid found were higher than the body would naturally produce.

FACT 2:

"In response to public comments made by Tyson and Hughie Furys' representatives, UK Anti-Doping can confirm that both boxers were charged on 24 June 2016 with presence of a Prohibited Substance. Mandatory Provisional Suspensions were imposed pursuant to Article 7.9.1 of the UK Anti-Doping Rules.

So leaving the facts aside, the tribunal were to take the call on the case in Oct, pushed to Nov, pushed to Feb'17 & here we are.. You don't fail a test & walk away..

I gave credit to Fury for beating Wlad, but if he was dirty then he shouldn't be getting credit..

so if BBBoC & UKAD doesn;t have a reputation to keep then its on them.. VADA testing should be recommended for all boxing boards going forward..
