    In fairness he's a former belt holder who had the balls to try and unify...

    And in all honesty, his resume is certainly no worse than Wilder's when it comes to his best wins (Chisora has a better resume than Ortiz, Ruiz jnr does too) - besides which, he didn't duck AJ and Dillian ****ing Whyte.

    All depends where you draw the line between gatekeeper and contender, I guess.

    I love Parker. And he is on edge to become gatekeeper but he is not yet!
    I can see him challenging for title one more

    Pulev is a great gatekeeper if he doesn't retire for a few years

    Dont see it....nothing in his last 5 and a half years since losing to AJ suggest he deserves a title shot!! Joyce obliterated him.....and Zhang done that to Joyce....thats how far away he is

    Fury is NOT a gatekeeper. He is a gatekeeper to the gatekeepers.

    Parker is the new gatekeeper. Chisora passed the torch
