The British boxer Hughie Fury has been given until tomorrow to sign a contract to fight WBO heavyweight champion, New Zealand's Joseph Parker.
WBO president Paco Valcarcel has told World Boxing News they've given Fury and his team until 1am Saturday morning to agree.

If Fury doesn't sign up Parker, will be allowed to fight another top 15 contender including the likes of Edmund Gerber, Andrey Fedosov, Dillian Whyte, Andriy Rudenko and Tom Schwarz, World Boxing News reports.
Discussions over where the fight would be held meant an original date of April 1 was scrapped early on as both sides looked at the possibility of staging the fight in the United Kingdom.
Auckland has emerged as the favoured destination late last week, although there's been no finalisation of that.
