    Yes, had it been ruled a headbutt, Parker would have had time to recover and would have won the fight.

    But as is, it was going to get changed to a draw until Hearn paid Parker to drop his case and just let Whyte keep the win.
    hearn paid him to drop the case?

      Yep. August 2, Parker announced he was appealing the result. Hearn paid him to drop the case and it was announced August 7 that Parker wasn't going through with the appeal.

        Nope. Not what happened. The WBC ordered the fight for the interim championship as a final eliminator. The WBC *publicly confirmed* that Whyte refused to fight and filed a petition to be named mandatory without ever fighting a final eliminator.

        After the fight was dead because of Whyte's petition, Fury announced the fight didn't interest him because he's not going to try to hype a fight he knows is dead. But when the fight was ordered, Fury's side did accept the fight and the WBC publicly confirmed it was Whyte who refused the fight and filed a petition to try to stop it.

            Doubt it. Team Parker just publicly announced they'd "decided to take the high ground," but the truth is they got a nice offer from Hearn that was contingent on them dropping the appeal.

              Business man Fury keeps putting roadblocks up ,he’s afraid of Whyte .

                Fury never put any roadblocks. Whyte is the one who filed an appeal. Fury has been willing to fight the whole time.

                  do you have proof they got an offer or is it a behind the scenes thing?

                    Behind the scenes, but it's pretty much an open secret Parker's Matchroom contract was contingent on dropping the appeal.

                      Did you teach Fury to out price himself in fights ?
