    This. Whyte beat Parker fair and square.

    When does a high-ranked contender fight a rematch with a guy with no title involved?

    And this mickey mouse team is why Parker will never give himself the best opportunity at being amongst the elite. Parker spent most of the fight plodding through another subpar performance, things didn't go his way but he also didn't do enough to justify an immediate rematch.

    Parker got shafted. He did more than enough to win. Didn't look great though... Needs to ditch Barry.

    There is nothing decisive about the win. I see fanboys popping off now but the weekend it happened, the majority of posters I saw edged it to Parker by a point, that includes the first KD scored for Whyte which shouldn't have.

    It is among the top fights of the last year or so that absolutely needs a rematch.

    Meh, Whyte owes no favours but I thought the first fight was great and I'd relish a rematch.
    Higgins talking sense here and provoking a response.
