    Bought tickets for this and although Taylor is the main draw for me I’m pretty gutted.

    Parker has no heart.

    What a shame, this would've been a great fight too. Hope Joe fights someone as soon as this is over

    Pulling out through “illness” three and a half weeks before the fight.

    Doesn’t sound right to me. If I catch a sniffle it’s gone in a few days.

    Totally agree mate. If it’s a fighter tapering down to make weight I could understand it. Shithouse reason to pull out of a fight three weeks before. I used to think Parker was a true fighting man. He’s a tough boxer but no one can excuse this.

    Wonder if they’ll throw in Hughie Fury.

    The word is Parker was bitten by a spider.

    Oh well, no dispute then as to who should be headlining which is good as Taylor v Progaris is the much more exciting fight anyway.

    Frank Warren hears the tread
    Of his favourite spiders feet,
    He tosses it a hunk of bread,
    For it deserves a treat,

    At first I thought this was a Spiderman joke in reference to the surname, now just read that's actually the reason for his illness!

    He’s been in ring with an awkward Hughie Fury, a very dangerous Joshua and dianabolical Whyte. He doesn’t exactly have a track record for this, if he can’t train cos he’s that ill then surely he deserves the benefit of the doubt? He can’t afford another loss in front of a Sky audience so he needs to be fully prepared for this.
