    My guess is the oddsmakers expect bets on Fury due to far more people in the UK betting than in NZ. A lot of people bet based upon personal bias, nationalistic or whatever. But this is just a guess, if it's a US company only taking bets from Americans then they may only factor in how Americans are betting. It could be that although Parker is the safer bet, Fury having a famous name is causing him to be overrated. Wouldn't be the first time that's happened with a fighter. Odds might change closer to the fight as more bets are placed. Parker a close favourite is not that big a shock anyway, he probably wins a copetitive decision not an easy KO.

    How much are you putting on Parker?
    I'm gonna wait for the odd's to get tighter and I might put 500$, hbu??? you putting anything???

      I don't earn enough to risk 500 on a bet, might put 20 on Parker decision. Probably not though because it's possible he brings a more aggressive game against a taller opponent and gets a KO. I don't think Hughie is terrible or anything, just a bit basic and untested.

        Considering Wilder's last Parker callout was asking him to fight in April - despite knowing Parker was already locked in to face his mandatory - this is a step in the right direction. Kinda.

        It's certainly a fight I want to see - Wilder has been in the game too long to be unproven still.
