    I presume this fight was made because Hearn is really scratching around to fulfil his PPV obligations to Sky in 2018. I don't think he cares who wins. Whyte was only ever signed to Matchroom as a chess piece anyway.

    If Parker is in shape, his speed and sound fundamentals will win him the fight and I'm not sure Hearn will be too bothered to load the judges in his charge's favour. Always worth allowing an overseas boxer take a decision to help with credibility for later bouts when you need home town judges for fights and fighters you care about....

    From the pics so far he looks in really good shape, as lean as vs Joshua but possibly a bit more muscle

    Yeah I noticed that. At first, when this fight was called, I thought Parker had been stitched up with a short camp, while Whyte was already training, apparently for the Pulev fight, but knowing full well that would never happen and who he was likely to face. But Parker seems on-point fitness wise...

    Parker was noticable faster than Joshua?

    Joshua watched his punches coming for 12 rounds, and barely, if ever, got tagged.


    Hughie Fury was called out for being so defensive against Parker, Parker did the same against Joshua.

    Parker never really got a chance against Joshua That clown of a ref must have had orders bot to allow Parker the chance to get inside. In other words Stop Parker hitting Joshua LOl a rematch is required with a competant unbiased ref

    I would love Parker to "Usyk" Whyte!

    Then Parker should go after Wilders trinket so if he beats Wilder he can sign a far bigger payday when he would then rematch AJ.

    Unless of course Wilder for some reason refuses to sign a contract with either Whyte or Parker.

    Wilder is in love with his trinket and above all does not want to loose it.

    Never seen a dude so in love with his own trinket like this Wilder fella.

    In the old days we would take a guy like Wilder behind the barn using many guys with pitch forks, shotguns and shovels etc, and when we were done a guy like Wilder would sign for the 15 mill no questions asked. Plus he would stay off social media from there on out.

    Unless of course he wanted us to release the Wilder male Pig sex tape on Youtube that was filmed behind the barn?

    Chisora was not "robbed badly" such a stupid comment. Fights that are close enough to go either way will usually go to the younger better fighter that will bring in more money, long term.

    If you know the scoring criteria and use it properly Whyte won more rounds and that was clear. There were a few rounds that Chisora won more clear and more one sided than any Whyte rounds but due to the rules you don't get extra credit without a kd or totally dominating for the entire round. Didn't happen

    Whyte new every round he wanted to win he won, he was clearly the better fighter. Can't say he was in top form but he had enough conditioning to win the fight.

    I do wish there were other options for scoring because some fights look one way but they were scored with head scratching but 10 point must has to go

    Rooting big time for Dillian. I realise he can be a bit of a tool but at least get the impression he's real, like no act thats just who he is. As for Parker he is a genuinely likeable decent soul and I hope he continues to have a great career and stack loads of wonga.

    For the match itself I still have to favour Joe. Far better experience and probably the all round better skill set. A lot may depend on their respective state of mind with Whyte coming off a sensational KO win and Parker surrendering his title in less than heroic fashion (albeit the ref made sure no fight was breaking out) vs AJ. Obviously Whyte also has the home advantage but Joe faced Hughie under the same conditions (albeit as champ) so despite the sceptics/conspiritards I have faith everything will be above board.

    Parker TKO 11
