    Apparently they were in negotiation with Jennings ,

    Likewise Whyte with Ortiz ,

    But both were having difficulties coming to final agreements , Hearn and Higgins got talking , and made this happen instead , they say it wasnt long term planning , but because they know each other well , they were able to get it happening quickly .

        There’s a fight. It is on tonight. There could be a winner and a loser, maybe even both, maybe neither.

        Whyte with a little trash talking, JP says he’s coming in as the angry man.

        Could be duelling windmills.

          Hoping Parker can sit this guy on his ass. Needs to throw some bombs to be a risky but compelling option for Joshua.

            Whyte wants an open, loose fight. Could be fireworks

              Parker should win comfortably but don't be suprised to see Whyte win by robbery as you usually see on Matchroom run shows.

                  Will be fireworks early...hopefully!

                  Parker there to make a statement, well so they say. Let’s see what happens once the bell rings

                    @mn5 Based on Whyte being very over-rated, coming in overweight and the fact that Parker is better than him in every department. Whyte hasn't beaten anyone decent (won a robbery against a past it Chisora) and if he wasn't promoted by Eddie Hearn he'd be nowhere.

                        Parker getting torched. No defense at all in this fight. Whyte well ahead at this point.

                          Wow looks like the ridiculous KD in round 2 has really affected Parker mentally.

                            Unless Parker flukes a knockout in the last couple of rounds, he is done and will never get another big fight again

                                For a fighter with t-rex arms, fighting on the back foot is not the way.

                                  @sammyc Yeah long way back for him after this. He'll either have to spend a year or 2 fighting low level journeymen or become a gatekeeper similar to Chisora/Takam.

                                  Whyte going roughouse seemed to affect Parker.

                                    @hydro11 Agreed, I thought he was better than this. Still not massive on Whyte personally but Parker has been extremely disappointing.

                                      If Parker is to continue, he needs to get a completely new approach. When he is in a fight and he is down on points, I just don't see the hunger to do whatever it takes to win. Maybe he just doesn't have anything to give I don't know. He needs to realise THIS IS HIS CAREER.

                                        after all the smack talk, was expecting he might, well you know, back it up.

                                        Glad I got off the wagon a couple of stops back.

                                          Parker needed to do what he did in the 12th, in the 10th and he probably would have won.
