Underwhelming Buatsi outpoints Parker in Manchester

British light-heavyweight Joshua Buatsi secures a points victory over Zach Parker in a lackluster but close 10-round contest under new promoters Queensberry. Buatsi's work rate edges out Parker, but the fight was marred by excessive holding, leading to a split decision. Buatsi, on a path to redemption after his first defeat, eyes a possible match-up with the winner of the upcoming WBC world-title clash between David Benavidez and Anthony Yarde.
