    Parker was totally toothless and had no idea what to do. Now seen as a legend because he's scraped by two old men.

    I agree, but AJ was just as toothless and wouldn`t fight on the inside, he didn`t throw a hook all night.

    Ridiculous that it can’t be in England and surely nobody in Saudi is bothered.

    More fights have been announced.

    I’m predicting Whyte to pull out last minute and be replaced by Hrgovic.

    I hope so, anyway. I’ve no real interest in watching Hrgovic fighting Adeleye. I thought he was supposed to be fighting Sanchez next anyway.

    Maybe that`s why they booked Hrg vs David, if Whyte pulls out it would be really easy for a fully prepared to fill in at the last minute.

    The past gen crew Whyte, Hrgovic, Joshua, Joyce, Chisora etc - Moses ices the lot of them within 3 rounds.

    I think Whyte tries to hold them to ransom on fight week and gets replaced

    I reckon he tries it, but gives in by the end cos the PPV loot is too tempting to turn down.

    Of course it’s Whyte, fair chance he gets popped come fight week anyway and that cancels the fight!

    I agree, but Hrgovic, according to one YouTube boxing commentator, is the "heir apparent".

    Butterbean Bakole would be too much for him.

    I remember people use to think that 4 maybe 5 years back, top amateur who beat up Wilder and Haye in sparring allegedly... the pro game doesn't suit him.

    Not sure. Bakole is a slob and Nelson isn’t doing as many interviews these days, is he?
