Parker is the best heavyweight boxer in the world - Fury

British professional boxer, Hughie Fury's trainer and father believes Joseph Parker is the best heavyweight boxer in the world and is confident of landing their potential bout in the United Kingdom.

The cousin of former unified champion Tyson Fury, Hughie Fury is being said as the front‑runner for Kiwi fighter Parker's first defence of the WBO title he won with a majority points decision over Andy Ruiz Jr in Auckland earlier this month.

With WBC champion Deontay Wilder confirmed this week for a fight against a Polish opponent in February, 22‑year‑old Englishman Hughie Fury, countryman David Price and American Jarrell Miller are all said to be in the running to be Parker's next opponent.
