Good to see this fight should be heading to NZ. Would sell poorly in the U.K, mainly due to Hughie. He's a quiet guy with a neutralising style and he's been promoted really poorly, like most Warren fighters. It'll be a bigger event in NZ.
Not sure about how the undercard will look. I can't imagine many of Warrens stable wanting to drag themselves across the other side of the world.
Credit to both fighters for wanting the fight. Parker could have took an easier defence against some ex footballer with a padded record but he hasn't. Hughie is a good boxer with a good background and a crafty s.o.b as his trainer and dad. Credit to Fury for taking it after a year out and still only 22 years old.
If Peter is allowed to travel to NZ then I'm edging toward Hughie for a closely fought upset.
