    Which is a stupid take, because the whole point is sport is competition, and Parker didn't come to win. The referee excuse is only partly valid because Parker showed zero dog whatsoever. He came to fight against Joyce and got utterly obliterated. Parker's face was mark-free after he faced Joshua and looked like he had been in a car crash against Joyce, after giving it his absolute all.

    Why insist on the rematch clause in the first place then?

    It was in case they lost a decision or it was a softer stoppage / Ruiz type quit.

    Now he's been bingo'd all over he doesn't wanna know.

    Well whatever 'contract' it was that Turkey Shake had that Hearn was banging on about.

    He could lose 15 on the bounce and Hearn would still say he's the best in the world and the Fury fight is the biggest ever Koogz

    At best, Hearn mis-spoke after the fight. At worst, he told a whopper to try and build the re-match narrative. Here was my take the morning after the fight FWIW.

    It is a quandary though as to whom is the bigger idiot. Wig is an absolute twat with his capital letters in posts, mis spelling of names and back tracking on his ‘NAILED ON predictions’ (such a knob), or DramaShow and his many clones who I know we both can’t stand.

    In all seriousness, these rematch clauses need to go and in this particular case, Joshua is going to be battered again so no point.

    He should have a farewell fight at the York Hall v Chisora.

    There was no rematch clause in the contract. Joshua's next fight is contracted with Riyadh Season there's a difference.

    Did you keep the same energy when Joe Joyce had a rematch clause with Zhilei Zhang despite being a much smaller draw and never holding a world title?

    Rematch clauses are crap but Joyce was the WBO mandatory and the 'A side'

    I don't think you can call it a duck; he fought Dubois and came up second best. No need to keep running it over as the result will likely be the same. It's best for both parties (minus Dubois' bank account) for both to go their separate ways and see what else is out there.
