Parker retained his WBO heavyweight world title and extended his unbeaten run to 24 fights after taking a majority decision at the Manchester Arena.
Fury was condemned to his first defeat as a professional by two scorecards that read 118-110 in Parker’s favour with the third calling the bout a 114-114 draw.
But Hughie’s trainer Peter was flabbergasted by the result and could not contain his anger at the decision in the dressing room afterwards.
“My son is sitting there and should have been crowned world champion today, all because of political influence, over here in our own country,” Fury said.
“This is letdown. When you’ve out that amount of work in, if you’re going to win and take someone’s record, win properly.

“Don’t rob young people of their boxing, whatever political pressure was going on. I don’t know what they were watching.”
The fight had been dogged by controversy throughout the week as Parker’s promoter David Higgins stormed a Fury press conference, angry over the choice of a local referee.
Pressure from the New Zealand camp saw the official changed, one of a number of elements that Fury claimed worked against his son.
“I had Hughie as a unanimous winner,” Fury added.
“He could have landed more from right hands but at 23 years old, he more than did enough for me.
“I told him to make him miss, touch him up with the jab and catch him now and again to see what he does.
“I kept telling him to put more right hand over and when he did, he looked good doing it. He was the one landing the shots. Parker was doing nothing.
“Hughie was moving and landing. He should have won it on the jab alone.
“I’ve always said Parker is a good fighter but in my view, we should have another world champion in the family.”
The first Fury world champion, cousin Tyson, was never far from the centre of attention on the night.
From his ringside seat, the former heavyweight world champion threw every punch with Hughie and leaped over the ropes after the final bell to celebrate what he saw as a victory.
“You can always tell with a fighter’s body language. Parker knew he lost that fight. He put his head on the floor,” Peter Fury said.
“He was swinging and missing. You don’t score missing shots and falling short.
“He obviously won it by just coming forward.
“But we’re not the judges. We can only get in there and do our best.”
