Comments Thread For: Parker's Promoter: Whyte Needs Rematch To Set Record Straight

[Adamsc151]

Many fely Chisora won their first fight, maybe HE wants the rematch to settle it once and for all.

It's a better matchup than a Parker rematch anyway

Any way you look at it, it's a backwards step for Whyte and a forward step for Chisora or Parker. Both fights could have been called a draw - especially if the 1st Parker knock-down had been correctly ruled a clash of heads - but Whyte got the nod in 2 close fights. The only reason Whyte's looking at the Chisora re-match is the money, there's no other reason for him to look back when he's trying to get a title shot. I don't think he gives a damn about whether some people think he lost as long as it's on his record as a win.
As for the Chisora re-match being the better one... Well the original was definitely more fan-friendly than the Parker fight, but sequels very rarely live up to the promise of the original.

Parker deserves a rematch

Its one of those things - when you are right, but nobody cares.

Whyte did enough to win this, Parker didn't do nowhere near enough. Parker's promoter is reaching as usual.

no he's not. Parker got dropped by an accident head butt. did you not watch the fight?

How about you get someone to head butt you and knock you down and see if it has an effect on your performance.

What he should do is give Hughie Fury a rematch

No one wants to see hughie fury do anything.

[Jkp]

He doesn’t really. There was some controversy over the 12 rounds but Parker’s performance was so flat that you really can’t argue that he deserved to win the fight.

Parker had a concussion from the illegal accidental head butt. That got ruled as a legit knock down.

Apart from that small detail it was a fair fight.

Whyte won the lottery with his accidental headbutt and still finished the fight on his knees begging for the final bell. That is the only reason it was a close fight.

Whyte knows this, which is why he dont want the fight.

oh snap that's exactly what I came to say

I don't think there's any need to rush Whyte, his hearts in boxing and he's working so hard to improve. He's far more intelligent than my initial impression of him suggested, he just needs to layoff calling fighters out if he has no intention of actually fighting them ... but if the rumours are true that Chisora was playing hardball at the negotiating table, I can understand why Dillian called out Luis Ortiz instead.

I believe whyte /chisora will be made considering ortit/kauffman has been announced.

Am sure whyte eyes is on AJ showdown. That's where the money is.

There are many fighters that have eyes on AJ's money windmill.
Whyte, big baby, H. Fury, wilder, T. Fury and I can't rule out chisora too.

I didn't include pulev because he will be a mandatory soon.

That's not an excuse. Clashes of heads happen in boxing all the time. AJ/parker, AJ/takam and several others but he still won.

Thou I will be in line with you in terms of affecting performance, yes it does because you will be fighting with pains and unease.
But that's not the reason Parker lost to whyte. He was not aggressive enough until the last 2/3 rounds which ended up being too late.

Why would I say what I said if I didn’t watch the *****in fight? It affected him of course but he had less will to win that fight, less aggression. Stuff happens in the ring, he felt sorry for himself rather than just keep going.
