I can't disagree much with you. I do think the pride of not wanting to lose really pushed Chisora and Whyte not having an authorative jab like Pulev helped Chisora as Whyte is happy to fight on the inside. I wish there was a rematch coz I don't rate Pulev and I think he's there for the taking.
If you was Diaz what belt would you go for Russell jr or Valdez? I think Russell with his inactivity, brittle hands and lack of power I would go for him.
He is, but not by Chisora. I hope Parker gets the opportunity myself. It's a perfectly winnable fight for him, and one which'd give him a big boost in people's estimations were he to win. Pulev seems scared to fight anyone in the top ten however. His last few opponents outside of Chisora have been sub-Wilder category.
I think Parker could win that fight but all it would do is paper over the cracks. Neither man is capable of beating Wlad, AJ, Wilder or Ortiz. They don't have the power, skill or size required.
True, though at some level any fight against a world level opponent will help put experience in the bank that can be used at a later date. I don't like Parker's chances against AJ or Wlad, though I'd give him a great chance against Wilder, and Ortiz is at that stage where he could quickly drop off.
What you said about Ortiz could be true but I expect wilder to blast Parker. That right hand would land and when it does it will be all she wrote.
Stop making excuses, Ostarine is a serious PED. Eventhough AJ probably is juicing at least he does fail tests like Povetkin.
