The poll on this thread is more thorough
It also seems like a bit of a longshot that the fight will happen.
Whyte may have a #1 contender eliminator so fighting Parker right now is a (IMO) high risk zero reward option. He may as well try and chase the #2 spot to Wilders belt, then wait the non regulatory 2 & 1/2 years for his chance

I like the fight for Whyte.
Ortiz beats him and doesn't speak a word of English.
Pulev beats him and doesn't speak a word of English.
At least with Parker Whyte can engage in his usual verbals beforehand and Whyte measures up to Parker size wise.
Parker has also just had that Joshua rub so people in the UK are familiar with him.
I think it's the best fight for Whyte right now...

Pulev, Ortiz, Povitkin, Wilder, Joshua2, Parker, all beat Whyte. Miller, Kownacki 50/50. To his credit, Whyte would be game to fight any of them. I admire that.
It seems Eddie wants to save Miller's "0" for Joshua- which is a shame, I think Whyte/Miller is a better fan fight, and Parker/Whyte a close second.
