Joseph Parker vs Hughie Fury

Joseph Parker's quest to conquer the British heavyweight boxing scene and beyond was alive and well after a gritty win over Hughie Fury in Manchester.

The WBO world champion defended his title with a majority points decision. The judges scored the fight 118-110, 118-110, and 114-114.

It was a solid British debut by the then 25-year-old as he backed up his pre-fight confidence.
