        Each undercard fight has a silly bauble attached to it. BS should ignore them.

          Parker made a fan out of me. I was super down on him after the Joshua and Fa fights, straight up thought he was toast. But he just kept on punching and he's stacked quite a few good performances together lately and I find myself rooting for him.

            Parker wins by mid round KO, this is a step too far for Wardley.

            Good to see Mitchell Smith on the undercard, it’ll be interesting to see how much he has left.

              Parker falling in love with being heavy and might think it increases his knockout power will be his downfall. Despite the Bakole knockout i'm convinced Parker is not a Knockout artist i'm pretty sure Wardley is the stronger puncher of them two but Parker has a very good chin and is overall the better boxer, so he should win.
              However Parker don't even need to bother fighting Usyk when he shows up that heavy Usyk will embarass him and stop him late if he is not coming in around 240 max.

              That being said i just realised this fight is a PPV event, how the hell with a okay main event and horrible undercard. What is going on lately first Itauma vs Whyte and now this, boxing once again is shooting itself in the foot.

                Who ate all the pies?

                Parker should be looking to do what he does best, box off the back foot and pot shot. Fabio can't box and Joseph can't fight.

                Coming in looking like a blimp isn't going to help unless he can float away like one too.

                  Heavier is never better. I don't know much about Wardley but I hope the weight doesn't become a problem.

                    Yeah, this worries me for Parker. Either they truly have zero respect for anything Wardley brings to the party and are sure that Parker can handle anything coming back at him and intend to end this in the distance, or Parker is believing his own press clippings because he looks very "blah" to me.
