    I truly hope this is Parker's coming out party

    I think he turns the corner with this fight

    Whyte shouldn't go over 245 imo but Parkers weight is fine I thought he was too small vs AJ

    I hope parker wins i think he has more upside

    Whyte is an idiot coming in at that weight against a slick guy like Parker !!! He’s about 15 lbs over weight !!!!

    Whyte becoming a fat-**** just when he had some career momentum. Good job. I guess when he beat Browne, the fat **** champion, he became the new fat-**** champion.

    I never understand why these guys would rather have grub than money, fame, and fine female fans. All they have to do is treat their chosen profession like it is, you know, a profession: something you work at every day.

    But whatever. I guess grub is better.

    Neither in the best of shape looking at them in the weight in, both showing off dad bods, lol.

    I assume Parker is coming in heavy looking to take it more too Whyte, I hope this happens I think he has a better chance if he can push Whyte back, Whyte on the back foot is vulnerable as we saw vs Chisora. I think if he only tries and boxes Whyte he could get out worked, Whyte is a very active heavy averaging over 60 punches a round, that's much higher than Parker's work rate. Parker can't just be defensive he needs to mix up his offense and defense to pull out the win.

    So is Whyte bigger than he was in his last couple of fights? Im hearing his new found discapline in training has slipped a little in this camp and im hoping im hearing just untrue rumours cuz with a bit more dedication in camp i think he has looked a lot better in the ring. He cant be taking Parker lightly and im not sure even the best Whyte beats Parker.

    Yes.

    Modern super heavyweights works best with some fat storage.

    Everyone saying the winner can rematch Joshua is unlikely in the near future.

    Most likely rematch made after tonight is Whyte-Chisora or Parker-Takam in my opinion.

    Whyte in particular is just a back up plan for Hearn and Joshua if Wilder or Big Baby doesn’t happen.I don’t think the winner tonight will get instant rewards,more likely just the credibility that comes with it.

    Whyte is a fool to come in that heavy, but if Parker fights like he did vs Joshua, he'll still win it.

    I think Miller's already got him well beaten on that front.

    We'll have to just wait and see.
    If Whyte has the stamina for a world level pro I'll be expecting him to pull off the big upset..

    Upset only because most are picking Parker and many think easily. That is what will make this win that much greater. I rate Parker right with Whyte but that's mostly because parker has a true granite chin for a hw..

    Parker chin is what kept him in the Ruiz and takam fights to have the chance at those fishy decisions. He not for his chin he'd never had been a real threat to win any title
