He can always rematch Parker, but he's running from that.....know idea why, after watching the last few Parker fights...
Unfortunately Parker has priced himself out of anymore fights. He's a bit of a yesterday's hero now but still expects paydays in the millions based off reputation. I can't remember a guy who fell down the ladder as quickly as Parker after losing a belt. Except maybe Jeep Horn.
Especially to fight someone like Franklin. I get it if he was maybe going to be the co-main, but that's not happening. And I would also get it if it was against someone with a decent name, but Franklin? Mindboggling indeed.
Interested in who else they put on the card. Maybe someone like Andrade and they put the card on the east coast?
A bunch of Brits on the card from what I heard
dillian is already in the record books, apparantly he had his first kid aged 13 making him one of the youngest fathers & now hes coming to america for a takeover, fair play to him, hes done very well for himself with what seems from afar is very little talent
Come on man,he has to fight somewhere now that Zamunda & wakanda both turned him down for being too ugly. They said"I cont get jiggy wit this shet,that boi so ugly his momma has to feed him wit a slingshot" :scared:

I actually think for him the UK money has dried up. He has basically rematches everyone he can over there except Joshua...and he isn't getting that fight. The purpose of fighting someone in the high 20's or low 30's in terms of rank is simply so that he can provide a highlight reel KO. It's what the Americans like to watch so he will be able to stand out and maybe make his way to a decent money fight. He would essentially be trying to restart his career over there.

Came to America before and nobody cared, he was on Crawford vs Indongo Unification Card...of course NOBODY REMEMBERS!
No issue with Whyte, I like that he don't mind being the Villain but cares about Whyte here in American, hell America really don't give a damn about boxing in general anymore so yeah it will prove to be a complete waste of time because Whyte will never be big here in America. I think DDD can be big in America, Fabio Wardley, Joyce will building up a bit of a following while he was with Richard Schaefer and Ring Star. Dillian Whyte vs Jermaine Franklin is not going to bring people out...most Americans, even Hardcore American Boxing Fans don't even know Jermaine Franklin
Lol hell no.. Hearn needs to finalize that Mikey against Prograis card. We can't care too much about Whyte over here.
It is a strange move cause despite him being a grade A c*** he does do decent numbers over here, he’s surely taking a significant pay cut fighting in the states. Maybe they’re looking for US exposure but the two biggest stars in the division are in the UK. Strange one…
We want rid of him over here anyway. You guys can keep him. :lol1:
I’m pretty sure Whyte’s fights will still be shown on Sky and not DAZN in the UK too.

Who's been asking for that ****? Are DAZN's Matchroom USA cards just to push UK subs?

Yeah it literally makes no sense, he'd make a lot more money in the UK. As much as I don't think highly of Charles Martin he is absolutely correct. If you are trying to chase the big dogs especially in america you can't start with tomato cans especially when your already established as a contender.
Arreola, Ruiz, Martin, Parker, those are guys that could atleast help people actually want to see you fight

So he wants to come to America and face a bottom 30 HW. Funny enough, Whyte will probably still go 12 huffing and puffing, looking like garbage like he did against Wach.

Arreola or Ruiz sure but honestly there's maybe 10,000 people in the entre US who could tell you the difference between Martin and Franklin. Its why pay in boxing is so skewed towards the name fighters, everyone else is interchangeable. Martin may have talked his way into the second fight, and good for him if it works out that way.
