    I can see this being in America as PPV for Chisora/Parker would be a tricky sell. If Dereck shows up he could edge it.

    Parker should win. He was so unlucky against Whyte. That headbutt took his spirit for a good few rounds. Wouldn't back against him if Whyte gave him a rematch which he wouldn't

    Parker and povetkin are great fights and both very close. One things for sure, chisora when he’s motivated is a handful for any top 5-10 heavyweight.

    Journeyman 9 losses couldn’t care less who he fights. Him and Parker would stink the place out guaranteed.

    Nobody has dealt with Szpilka like Dereck Chisora did, he absolutely smashed him up inside two rounds. I'd give him a chance against Parker, he's lost 9 fights but he's in pretty much everyone and a game fighter, no other active Heavyweight has been in against as many high quality opponents, that includes the current champions and former champions.

    Fury x 2
    Vitali
    Whyte x 2
    Pulev
    Takam
    Haye
    Malik Scot when he was 35-0
    Kevin Johnson when he was 29-4
    Helenius in his prime
    Kabayel
    Szpilka

    I'm not saying he's brilliant but he's decent enough to be considered a threat.

    I know he lost a lot of them but most of those losses were close and he was in those fights

    Given Chisora's smashing of the Pole, the odds are a little skewed for Parker at 4/9. Old Del probably reverts to punch bag status against Joseph, for many reasons.

    Chisora could put Parkers career in tatters, there's a hell of a lot on the line for him and someone like Chisora could really upset the applecart.

    Parker’s chin should see him through. Although I thought the same about Takam. I hope Chisora stops him.

    Hearn says it could headline at the o2 on the 26th October.

    Well done Del Boy. Back in the big time.

    Parker was close against whyte but chisora had 2 very close fights with Whyte also. He got sparked last time but was up on some cards at the time

    I think it's a great fight and a close one.

    You forgot that you like Chisora lol? How old are you exactly? To forget emotions.

    I wasn't rooting for him particularly before the fight as I'd sort of forced him to the back of my mind. Once he poleaxed Szpilka I had that moment of clarity "OHHHH I do like Chisora a lot". He constantly looks like he's on his last legs and then bodies someone, it's bizarre.
