But at least he beat a good fighter to do it

Martin won his on a fluky TKO

Photos: Parker vs. Fury Erupts in Near Brawl at Weigh-In

By Terence Dooley

There was double trouble at the weigh-in for Joseph Parker’s WBO heavyweight title defence against Hughie Fury earlier today after a melee erupted at Manchester’s National Football Museum when Fury shoved the titlist, which prompted a scuffle between members of both teams that in turn required the intervention of Security Alert UK, who are working the event.

Peter McDonagh, who is also trained by Peter Fury, the father of Hughie, also caused a bit of consternation after pushing his opponent Shayne Singleton during a staredown.

Once again, the security staff had to step in to defuse the situation, but not before Singleton had managed to spin and then sprint around them as he tried to have a second go at McDonagh.

Once the dust settled on the heavyweight flare up the weights for the main event were announced, with Parker hitting 17st 7lbs [245-pounds] to Fury’s 16st 10lbs [234-pounds] to ensure that the only drama took place away from the scales ahead of tomorrow’s show, which takes place at the Manchester Arena and is being broadcast live on Youtube as part of a new PPV boxing platform.

Earlier in the day, the Furys spent time at Manchester United’s training ground, posing for photos with the team and manager Jose Mourinho before heading into the city centre to hit the scales.

Surprised there's no poll. Hughie's jab may make the difference

I hope Parker wins

No need for another Fury as a champion from me

A little controversy can be good for the sport but this family is over the top with it. Pull outs, peds,drug abuse, lack of dedication, brawls... These guys are simply unreliable and unprofessional and would probably only hold back the development of the division. :hubie:

I still wouldn't care about all that if Hughie Fury would be such a great talent and if I would like his fighting style that much but he isn't and I don't.
So let's go Parker
