I think Parker will be up for this one. With Chisora bound to come flying forward, I think Parker will catch Chisora at some point, Chisora will try to bully Parker like Whyte did and I see Parker gradually dismantling Chisora for a late KO/TKO.
Parker's handlers definitely had researched Chisora's last fight vs Usyk. Gas tank for 6 rounds if this is Usyk.
If Parker uses his feet he should win. He's not exactly elusive but as long as he doesn't try and but heads with Del Boy he should win. Box sensibly and let his hands go he can be a bit cautious at times and it's cost him. Chisora has to what he always does head down and try and land clusters of good shots but he has to pace himself. He hasn't got the tank for 10-12 rounds at the pace he's most effective at. If Del boy looses this think its the end of the road for him.
I don't think so, eddie most likely will place him on next ppv or at least big events undercard. Parker most likely will attempt to gas out Chisora for first half of fight. If vs Usyk he started to gas out after 6 rounds, vs Parker this maybe might be after 8-9 rounds. Parker needs evade Chisora exactly during first rounds to be very careful. Chisora also will be older vs Parker than he was vs Usyk.
Parker points Parker should pick up enough from his new trainer Andy Lee to be better off the ropes and more attacking. He also should be motivated. Chisora will be well up for this fight as it is one he is the under dog in. He always produces his best performances when underdog, but he always ends up losing as underdog.
I think Parker switches off half way through and Del lands a massive overhand right and puts him out.
Parker has to go full Kronk and finally take his meandering career by the scruff of the neck. He's being fed a past it fighter who can help sell the fight and will be game. He needs a showreel KO that persuades people that 'paint dry Parker (copyright @Jurgen) is no more and he's going to try and realise the considerable potential he once showed. So, with the understanding we've been here before, I'll go for a Parker KO in 7.
Chisora wins by a very close UD in a very dirty fight. He will just outhustle paint dry Parker. Matchroom referee will allow him to get away with it.
As a long-time fan, I too am looking for something special from Parker that says he can still fulfill his potential. If it is paint-dry, it needs to be over.
Imagine if Chisora actually gets that first big win Parker has nowhere to go For the record i think he wins a fairly boring fight on points so it shouldn't be a problem for him
