Live Press Conference

Damn! They already had a press conference? Looks like Eddie Hearn decided a long time ago that they would duck Pulev.

Pulev ****ed up not shifting of his demand for 75% of the purse split. Hearn always wanted a PPV on this date, and Pulev thought hed get 75% of it? lol.

That purse bid was bogus to torpedo the fight, Pulev didn't want to fight him.

Sure buddy, I thought the split was based on the IBF rules. I asked NSB for clarification on the issue but nobody replied.

Haha.. British cherrypickers.

1: Whyte: I want to participate in a pursebid for the Pulev fight.

2: Hearn submits a bid.

3: Hearn loses pursebid

4: Whyte finds a new opponent.


How is that NOT a duck?

Yeah it is, but only in the event of a purse bid. A deal can be made, you wouldn't see Canelo or Mayweather fighting a champion and taking 25% of the split. Whyte's bringing in the money here and rightly should have had a better percentage.

It's a good match up but it's always a dodgy thing to put it on PPV
when one of the fighters is not much of a name outside his own country and coming off a loss as well. Whyte has done little since being iced by A.J. ....seems like Eddie's at it again.

Unless this has a spectacular under card it's not ppv worthy.

[Straightener]

He fought well, Joshua was also very wary and usually hugged or ran if Parker got into his chest.
Ref helped AJ a lot too.
Joshua was a bit better but only by about 4or5 rounds.
Parker could have doubled up the jab more to try and get inside but he boxed well, was hard to hit.

Joshua showed him a lot of respect and knew he had to use his reach

Whyte is brave but he's sort of little more than mediocre across the board
Parker can reach him and hurt him, he should have some snap back after fighting injured the last 2or3 years

I mean before the fight Parker going off like he’s gonna actually bring the fight to aj and let his hands go

Ran out of ideas round two and coasted to a points loss . He was clearly there to make a few quid and try and survive the fight . Annoying as f**k when fighters do that . If you want the belts you need to leave it all in the ring not coast like a bytch

He has a chance to redeem himself against whyte but I can’t see it . Last four fights Parker has had have been gash . Fury Parker the worst but the Joshua fight not far behind
