Oh fair, didn't know this. Surely they will have tune up fights before it. That should be a decent fight.
Pudding Chisora v Paint Dry Parker PPV - Salesman Toe Haye, Eh Day Hearn and Adam Smith will be reeling the PPV Mugths in big time at £24.99. 'Parker won the local NZ war on Saturday 27 Feb in a great fight' and 'Chisora was robbed in his last fight against the undefeated Usyk after bringing the pressure for 12 rounds'. 'Could be last chance PPV Saloon for both men' and 'the winner guaranteed a World Title fight in 2025'. If all else fails, I hear Toe Haye has suggested that the final presser includes Parker doing the Haka and Chisora blows his penal top smashing an unframed poster of Dullian Whyte over Paint Dry Parker's head knocking him clean out. Paint Dry Parker gets to his feet after a Tyson Fury count in Wilder 1 and is held back by Terry Harper.
I think the bigger question should be if this is a main event. It’s a solid chief support fight. To headline it as a PPV is laughable. Hearn and Sky just throw it on and let Haye act as the mouthpiece
Couldn't they just add it to the AJ v Fury undercard? Also, it seems like a very short turnaround after Parker just fought.
Did anybody see Parker last week? ANYBODY? He looked like a bag of turd, I actually thought he lost to Fa, he was dreadful. Who remembers Hearn, Haye, Team Sky trying to convince everybody that Usyk is just "too small", "doesn't punch hard enough" and wouldn't be able to cope with a real heavyweight like Chisora. OK, fine, I'll buy it.. then the fact is Chisora lost to a little man who has no power and Parker got a gift in a dreadful fight. Those were their last fights, that's what they will sell a PPV off, the back of that crap? Really? Seriously, this has to stop now, it's gone way too far, there needs to be an organised boycott of these type of fights, a genuine boycott, once people refuse to buy these types of events then they will stop. It's the same old, same old, we know exactly what's going to be said, exactly how they'll sell it, from Sky to IFL.. Chisora is already on IFL doing the "beef" scene, calling Parker and telling him to answer the phone. It's just see through and embarrassing, we will have Eddie in his Hour Long BRUTALLY HONEST interview saying Chisora is "game", "always in entertaining fights" and "Parker former world champion and the first man to go the distance with AJ" Oh and the winner is "right in the mix, they could end up mandatory for AJ". And don't forget "a stacked card with world title fights"... not highlighting those "world title fights" will be some British woman Vs some Argentinian Cleaning Woman. Just F Off with this crap, I'm done with it and I'll happily join any boycott.
I liked Chisora moaning at the press conference about Taylor v Progaris being the main event instead of him. One fight was a FOTY candidate while he just waddled around the ring against a guy who couldn't wait to see the ref wave the fight off.
Isn't this the next phase in Hearn's masterplan? Didn't he mention about PPV cards without a real main event .. this could be the trial run. He was having to come out with next-level nonsense to justify Whyte as a headerliner. If he can just convince enough people a PPV doesn't need a main event (which has always been the point in them) then he's golden. He's great at selling the 'stacked' undercard. Now it will just be the same thing without him having to say stuff like Bellew vs Usyk is close to a 50-50 fight.
It’s interesting to see Chisora’s trajectory now. The last time this fight was on was as chief support to Taylor vs Prograis, now its counted as a PPV on its own.
Yeah Fowler is on the Okolie Glowacki card and Fitzgerald hasn't received a date yet. He could be on the Chisora Parker card or even the Benn Vargas one. Of course, but imagine if their is a trilogy fight...
