      Why else has had the power to stop Hughie, Ruiz and Takam ? ......

        Juiced to hell Povetkin.

        Ruiz is the most underrated win on there though IMO. You watch Ruiz' fights and dudes get this hunted look on their faces after 3 rounds when he starts bashing them on the inside with that overhand right. I know he didn't fight anyone else of top level, but he ended a few prospect's careers and is a talented fighter IMO.

          This is how Tyson fights too very boring from a fans pov to watch a big man box and take zero risk but from a fighters pov if you can win at a safe distance and never have to get hurt why wouldnt you.

            I think Parker won close. Fury can't win with just movement and occasional shots. At least hurt the guy if ur throwing minimal. Neither looked relevant in the HW division. Parker has fast hands but wears snows shoes. His weight keeps going up, and he's only 25. Not good.

                I went to that “event” ,Fury made Parker follow him around an miss all night but wasn’t consistent enough with the counter shots.
                It was Furys fight to lose but he needed to do more to take a champions title but he didn’t do anything with enough authority for me .
                As for Parker well he isn’t very good and is very limited from what I seen that night,only punches Parker landed clean was in the 12th ,Furys chin is legit i would say though.
                Terribly promoted event an dreary fights on it to . better fights in the crowd lol

                    Uhhh, no one has stopped Ruiz. No one has stopped Hughie. Only one person has stopped Takam - and that was a guy who was juiced up.

                    I know you've got this narrative to ride, but, the facts don't back it up.

                      You're totally right. If you can get the W and the belt by taking no risks then you have to say that's smart. But, my God it's so fuggin boring to watch. Could even say it damages the sport as a spectacle.
