Very difficult fight to predict for me.
Hughie has more skill than any parker opponent thus far but he hasnt got the power to finish the fight so he can only win a decision.
Unknowns about fury are durability and physical strength.
You saw in the dimitrenko fight how a major lack of physical strength is a big problem.
It comes down to if fury can shut parker down when he does his rage attack thing or not. If he can do that and reset, parker is in for a tough night.
If he cant, parker will close him down and take him out.
Im leaning towards parker because hes shown more at a higher level, but i dont rule out fury fighting up to his opponents level like tyson did against klitschko.
The other point id add is Peter fury is great at analysis and has turned down fights before that he didnt think were right for his fighters, yet he took this one. I do find that interesting.
