Comments Thread For: Fury: Even Wilder Thought I Beat Parker - Everyone Can't Be Wrong

Put it down to experience fury. Next time yoiu know whatb to do.

Hughie has the movement, defence, timing and boxing skills down, he's just too weak just now. Once he develops in a few years he will give any fighter fits. And this experience should make him more proactive instead of reactive.

The problem with Hughie going forward is no one is going to want to fight him, he will make any fighter in the world look bad. He'll just need to take his time and work himself back to mandatory, there's no rush.

Guys like Gorman and Dubois are inevitable fights in the next year or two.

Hughie should just stop beating around the bush and call out Tyson!

I agree

Fury had to force the issue which he didnt do.

Fury was so negative that it was very hard to score the rounds, if he just threw a few straight right hands each round that would've been enough for me.

Great Defensive Performance but a truly Awful Offensive Performance so with Parker's aggression I actually had no problem with the 118-110 scorecards and I actually had no problem with the 114 - 114 scorecard. Hughie Fury made the fight really hard to score, just 3 clean right hands landed per round would of defintely won it for him but just using the jab 90 % of the time isn't enough especially when your constantly defending multiple combination attacks a round even if most of it wasn't landing the pure aggression wins the round if all there is coming back is a few flick jabs.
Fury threw a couple of right hands only when Parker fell over his punches into the ropes and in a couple of rounds he threw an uppercut occasionally when Parker was coming in.

It wasn't enough though I do believe that if Hughie Fury if he actually ATTACKS his opponents rather than constantly moving back, flicking a few jabs and repeat with the odd safe counter he has enough talent to be a real force and top 5 heavyweight for many years to come. He has the talent, he is very young, the WBO Mandatory position was forced on him (due to David Haye passing up on the opportunity to fight Bellew) so you know he couldn't pass up on a world title shot but he was inactive for 1 year due to medical problems and ideally he would have had 3 fights to sharpen his attack so in a way bad timing for the kid. Ideally though in any fight you expect at least a few venomous nasty right hands to show a clear intention to win and damage the opponent especially in a world title fight and that is why Hughie Fury did not get the decision.

I see some of the same hypocrites who said Canelo beat GGG and Lara beat Canelo talking about Fury "didn't do enough offensively." LOL... these hypocrites change the principles of scoring fights based on which cack they'd like to suck more

Another problem he had was coasting the last 30 seconds of the round on the backfoot not throwing.

If he had thrown the right more, like you said, as well as doing the better work in the last 30 seconds of the round he would have won.

It was so strange watching a fighter move about the outside not throwing for that last 30 seconds, with a title on the line? You're basically begging the judges to score the round against you when you do that, even if you had won the first 2:30 by a few punches.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

He won't win anything by moaning about it. Scoring is subjective.

Get back in the ring and back on the road to big fights.

Fury didn't land as much as Lara. Erislandy may be dull but he has some power. Fury wasn't punching, he was trying to touch Parker.

Be interesting what happens on the GB domestic HW scene. Fury will have to stay relevant somehoe and could do worse than going down the lonsdale belt route.

He towns sexton right now.. but thats seemingly the route warren wants dubois to go. It'd be interesting to see if fury wants to step in with dubois or whether warren would risk fury making dubois look a fool with his higher ringcraft

phantom jabs dont win fights
