Blimey I didn't realise this was PPV.

Losing to Joshua clearly has its benefits.

Hearn's justification of this being PPV on this weeks Toe 2 Toe podcast made me angry listening to it.

Essentially saying he wanted to give Dillian a pay day because he's done it the hard way. Why the f*ck should fans have to foot the bill for it? This fight/card is nowhere near PPV worth - the Cleverly v Bellew 2 card was better FFS.

Team Stream for me. Cancelling Sky too - at the end of my contract and this is the final straw for me. Piss taking wankers.

AJ says Whyte by KO.
Not my prediction, but the guy has faced both of them.
If AJ couldn't even knock Parker down, let alone out, how does he expect a much slower moving Whyte to achieve it?

Joshua has been hanging around Eddie too long.

Yeah, I did sorta figure puppetry at work. Mind you, it's a fair distance to work AJ's mouth. Does Eddie have the reach?

I don't think Del Boy would have enough front to have this card as PPV. Absolute joke

Sky are slowly talking up the Dillan Whyte v Joshua rematch.

I really hope Parker wins by knockout so it ruins the chances of that.

Why? It was a fun fight to watch & Whyte has got better since then. It's not like we're spoilt for choices in the heavyweight division.

It's only the Wilder fight I'm interested in for Joshua.

Plus I'm not convinced Whyte has improved that much.

Chisora rematch majority thought he lost.

Malcolm Tann........

Helenius was awful splattered by Duhaupas before.

Browne a punch bag in terrible shape.

We will find out in a week. My main concern is sky setting up this rematch. I think 4 clear rounds will give Whyte the fight. Parker needs to win by KO or almost every round if he wants to avoid being screwed by judges.

He's improved loads. He's boxing better now, he has much improved balance & all round knowledge. I'm shocked that you don't see this. Just looking at his movement in the ring it's obvious.

Exactly and that's my concern with judges. It's set up for Whyte to win with a good name on his resume. I can see a bad robbery.

Parker can not afford to let this fight get close. He had to go for the knockout.

As much as Browne was in awful shape. That ko was sickening and I liked the look of Whytes bodyshots. I'm just not as convinced in his ability as others are.

We will find out on the 28th. I'll give him credit if he pulls this off fairly.

I'm just talking about looking at him pre Joshua & looking at him now.

Much improved technique.

I think Parker will stop him. To get a rematch with AJ he needs to make a statement

If Whyte wins will that delay the Wilder fight further?

I think Wilder will come first- if he is allowed to take the fight. Otherwise Eddie has both Miller and Whyte whenever he needs them. I just hate this predecided winner thing :witzend:
In my mind, it's a 50/50 fight between Parker and Whyte. But if you listen to Eddie, Whyte has already won this. Which makes me agree with other posters about Parker not letting this go to the scorecards!

I wouldn't write Whyte off but Parker has to be favourite. By far the better boxer and just as tough and probably has the edge in power.

Interestingly, Miller is going to be part of the broadcast team for this fight.
What that tells me from past experience is; Miller is either being put forward for UK media exposure to fight AJ later on, or the winner of Parker/Whyte.
Thoughts?

He's been drafted for sure, we just have to wait to see for whom.

I haven't voted because I'd put Parker on points if not for the judges. I guess that makes my choice Whyte on points, but still.

I'm leaning to the winner of Parker/Whyte. Just because Miller needs a bit more buildup in the UK, and a fight between the winner is big, and if Miller wins ( which I highly doubt) then Miller Joshua is stadium PPV. Eddie is great at playing the long game.
