Peter Fury confirms Hughie v Joe Parker talks, wants April UK clash
A massive WBO heavyweight title shot in the UK is being worked on by Team Fury and reigning champion Joseph Parker’s handlers at Duco Events.
Trainer Peter Fury is attempting to seal a championship chance for son Hughie against Parker after the Briton was named mandatory challenger by the World Boxing Organisation.
David Haye’s decision to fight Tony Bellew left Hughie in pole position to fight Parker on the back of the New Zealander defeating Andy Ruiz Jr. to claim the coveted belt in December.

Haye dropped a ball when he chose not to take on Parker and fight Bellew.
Haye would have been in a better bargaining position if he had a belt instead of wasting 4 months out on his career.
Hughie could surprisingly win this fight against Parker.

Peter confirms talk? Blimey, must be serious this time like all those talks Peter had with every other heavyweight on the planet about facing Hughie.

Fury is Parkers mandatory no..?
Re: Peter Fury confirms Hughie v Joe Parker talks, wants April UK clash
I saw a few decent sources confirming this so looks like it will happen. Decent 50/50 scrap. Slightly favor Hughie given its in England and likely to go the distance

ross..ross...ROOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
can you confirm or deny?
I'd like to see this, I think I have seen all of Hughies fights but I can't remember a single one of them, I don't know if I watched him in Tysons shadow but he has never done anything to stick in my mind.
Maybe Hughie needs to punch himself in the face or something to get peoples attention

Hughie wins this without breaking a sweat. He will jab Parkers head off...

pretty sure he is, from the reports i read it seems like it is heading to a purse bid, will be interesting to see who wins the bid.. Parkers team are also talking about taking on wilder in a unification instead.. Either fight would be pretty good in my opinion
Re: Peter Fury confirms Hughie v Joe Parker talks, wants April UK clash
Purse bids have been ordered by February 1st.

We will never know because they will never fight, just like the Klitschko brothers.

They do not have to fight one another to be know who is better.
Hughie is not as good as Tyson.
