Ali may have danced like that, but at least his punches had some sting.
JP didn't look great, but Fury looked horrible.
Last thing boxing needs is giant wankers who dance without ANY power punches

JP seems to have hitched his wagon to KB, but I don't know whether it's KB's fault that JP can't seem to adjust to what's in front of him.
At this stage, he looks very limited, but is still to have his chin tested, so I guess that's why the powers that be want to see him against Wilder and AJ. I hope he doesn't take too many flush...

Arent you the guy who said "tall timber" hughie would go down in 3 rounds like dimitrenko?

Of course hughie wasnt going to stand and trade with parker, he doesn't have power so he fights the way he can. I do agree that he could have stepped inside a bit more as he actually did ok when he did.

Both guys fought to their attributes and since it's a boxing match not a bar brawl i had it close on my card but shaded parker. I dont score points for lunging in and missing.

I said he should chop down Hughie, but didn't give a round, and wasn't that sure of the should, which is why I wrote it like that.
I also said JP looks very limited, after the event though.
Did you give Hughie points for back-of-the-hand slap-jabs and ballet dancing? If not, what did you give him points for?

I score clean punches landed. Hughie was very defensive and i didnt appreciate the tactics but a jab is a jab, and anything that isn't a jab counts as a power punch. Based on that i thought hughie won rounds 1-4 pretty clearly, i gave parker 2 clear rounds between 4-12 and the other 6 rounds were subjective. 

Don't mind joe getting the decision but neither was impressive and as the champion with more experience im more dissapointed in joe than hughie
