[Fabes88]

Surprised it didn't end up on boxnation.

[Tom Cruise]

They were giving it the biggun about having a broadcast deal when everyone was doubting them and this is what they had...

Duco (Parker's promoters) were questioned on this and their response was (verbatim): "Joe is VADA tested athlete. Of course there’s drug testing for both boxers."

When pushed, they did not answer what drug testing organisation was contracted to the fight, and they did not answer about how stringent the testing would be. Honestly, I think they don't even know and have left that up to Hennessy Sports (Fury's promoter). I think that's very negligent on their part and they should have pushed for full VADA testing or at least UKAD or something. It sounds like what they're doing is the standing pee-in-a-cup after the fight thing which is kinda pointless.

PPV.....Lol.

I was thinking the same thing.

I was quite looking forward to this fight...but PPV?

They need to learn that not every fight is PPV material. A few years down the line and boxing fans are going to be priced out of watching the sport.

I feel sorry for Parker. This fight should have taken place in New Zealand

I have pretty much no good will left for the Furys and especially Hennessy at this point
