I knew people would hate on Hughie for his style, that's fair enough, but let's call a spade a spade here - the judging in this fight was terrible! Giving Parker 10 rounds for getting totally outboxed???
Parker landed 2 clean shots, his wild swings were blocked all night but obviously counted by the judges as Hughie does a lot of things in there split-second. Hughie made Parker miss badly, interested to see punch stats for this fight.
Hughie needs to take this on the chin and learn he can't win fights with this style. He's a great boxer, but he needs to be more aggressive and develop power, then he will beat Parker far clearer than he did last night and take away the excuse that "he ran" "his jabs have no power" etc
Hughie is better than Parker in every way barring power and aggression. Better footwork, speed, timing, distance, defence...everything. Add weight and power and we have a world champion. Luckily he has years before his prime!
