Joseph Dennis Parker vs. Dereck Chisora II & Carlos Gongora vs. Lerrone Richards RBR.

Lol Bellew thinks it's cos of Dave Coldwell that Chisora was conditioned enough to make it through 12 rounds most of which he spent on the verge of being knocked clean out.

 

It’s true. Coldwell has the heating on full whack so it’s easier when he gets in the ring at normal room temperature.

 

A wide birth? I thought he looked a bit podgy at the weigh in but not that bad.

I didn't watch this one. A 12 round UD for Parker is no surprise.

Chisora takes yet another loss. The "he's game" crowd are missing the point.

He's ****ing useless.

 

Terrible scorecards Parker won clearly knockdowns aside, hate to be that guy but I really don't think this card will have done well view wise

 

Those 2 Fury wins over Chisora are going to take a serious hit on @Mitch87 Boxing CV Algorithm.

Think Tyson Fury will not even make his top 20 now as he had those 2 wins as Fury's best outside Wlad.

 

I scored it about 119-105 or 118-106. The 114-112 is one of the worst scorecards ever.

 

It was good to have Ade presenting on DAZN tonight. I’ve watched him on YouTube for years.

 

Time for chisora to call time now. For all the stick he gets...in recent years hes been competetive with usyk, parker, whyte. Hes always put up a half decent fight throught his career barring probably fury. After watching tonight tho hes done. Now time to put his health first.

Think he was worse off for linking up with coldwell...looked much better under hayes regime imo. Proper handful at times under haye...but he looked slightly underpowered tonight...think his stamina wasnt as good either. 37 now time to call it a day after tonights showing. Almost tired watching him. Shocking scorecards as well. Parker looked decent tonight. Hopefully onwards and upwards for him now...just doesnt have much of a punch at the top level.

 

After giving Chisora two close rounds, I scored it 117-108. I would be OK with 118-107 or even 119-106 give how closely-contested those rounds were.

A dominating performance by JP - even if the judge's seemed unwilling to acknowledge it - but ultimately disappointing given that Chisora seemed destined to be stopped before halfway through that 3rd round.

Progress from JP, yes, but he needs to repeat the feat against a better opponent before I want him in the title discussion again.

 

I hope Chisora does pack it in — maybe one easy goodbye fight to go out a winner at most.

He’s too brave and game for his own good to go on and I don’t want to see him scratching around losing to put a notch on every belt from now on and end up just taking beatings in meaningless fights after that.

He’s given his all, no shame in his career at all, but at the end of the day he’s a journeyman.

 

Parker had a bit of meanness that he's lacked before last night. Still not enough to get rid of Chisora so really I don't see where he goes. Whyte is after a belt, he won't fight Fury, Joshua rematch not exactly being called for, wilder who knows if he will fight...

Ruiz?! Not sure if he brings money for Ruiz to risk it

 

The commentary was so bad. None of Parker’s work was acknowledged by Costello and just got a ‘OHH’ from Barker who wasn’t putting the mic near his mouth whenever Parker landed.

Chisora hits fresh air or arms ‘WHAT A TURNAROUND HERE’.

On a side note, Andy Lee in the corner was great. Clear, concise info. Read the fight very well.

 

I guess when you’ve part funded the BBBoC for years through all those fines, you expect a bit of help later on.

I guess all is forgiven after Del fought under the Luxembourg commission a few years ago to get a favour like those cards. Still can’t get my head round 114-112.

 

Costello is an absolute nuisance. Terrible commentator, in general. Maybe good for radio, I have no idea. People seem to love him.

 

I genuinely prefer Adam Smith.
