Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker on Dealing With Adversity Versus Dillian Whyte

[Jkp]

Its good to correct your mistakes but I don't think Whyte is interested in a rematch.

Whyte knows he wont win, unless he can land that head butt again in the 1st round, and then again in the 6th round to keep him concussed.

[Jkp]

People seem to be forgetting that Parker only lost due to a knockdown that wasnt a knockdown, not only was it not a knockdown but it was a headbutt that left him concussed for half a dozen rounds, in a fight where he was making whyte look like a novice up until that point.

People are also forgetting whyte was literally lying ontop of parker holding on for dear life until the time ran out, which the reff did nothing about.

No headbutt knockdown = parker wins the fight. there should of been an immediate rematch.

yes, a lot of people on here forget a lot of things, and have a very loose grasp on reality.

Amazes me how a B grade guy like Whyte, with awful boxing fundamentals can suddenly be considered worthy of challenging for the title. Despite being completely destroyed by the same guy a few years ago. This represents everything thats wrong with heavy weight Boxing at the moment.

Whyte is the most overated guy in the heavy weight division. C grade at best, he's proven to be exactly the same level as Chisora. But continually gets mentioned as top 5. He's probably not even be top 5 in the UK let alone the world.

He won the lottery against parker with a headbutt, and still was a few seconds away from losing. headbutt which was the only reason the fight was close. Apart from that his greatest achievement is getting his head taken off by AJ.

Did you watch the AJ fight? It was a good fight. Your entitled to your opinion but I dont see much overrating of Whyte... Mostly he gets the short end of the stick.

I'm a Parker supporter but he doesnt mention that Whyte came in heavy and at quite short notice, he ran out of steam , he would likely be in better shape for a rematch vs Parker so headbutt vs too heavy fading late hmm

Things don't always go perfectly in boxing Parker, you lost what you probably shoulda won, I can't see him being a top 5 heavyweight unless he changes things up and gets a new main trainer like Roach and a more flexible mindset

yeah true parkers team were going to appeal the loss, whyte was warned 5 times in the fight without a point being taken away, the scorecards showed if parker won the round in which he was headbutted, the fight was a draw, the win was anything but conclussive for whyte and i would love to see a rematch, parker should of been given 5 mins to recover from the headclash, after the clash parkers original plan to win the fight kind of went out the window as he was concussed and just trying to survive those middle rounds.... alot of boxers wouldnt of even been able to get up from that headclash,

You either didnt watch the AJ Paker fight, or just have a raging hard on for AJ.

Yeah I watched that crappy fight. Parker fought just like he fought against Whyte for 11 rounds. Not aggressive, not throwing enough. But he knew that if he threw more and went for it against AJ, he would probably get knocked out. That's why he played it safe. And no, gayboy, I don't have a hard on for a man, maybe you do though. And that's cool, but keep it to yourself with that gay ****.

Who gives him the short end of the stick? He's about to be given a second shot at fighting the #1 guy AJ, I dont see how its possible to rate him any higher.

This is all despite struggling horribly with Helenius/Parker /Chisora in his last fights.

Eddie had to go the opposite side of the earth to find a boxer (Lucas browne) bad enough to make him look good.

AJ has been quoted many times saying he didnt want to go for the "knock out" as he wanted to demonstrate his boxing skillset and not take any risks . But you still blame parker.

Eddie also clearly paid the Ref to protect AJ and prevent a brawl happening.

Open the other eye, or maybe read some the articles about the fight that are written by qualified journalists.

Dylan also said he had a broken hand, broken ribs and had the flu for the fight... lol

Weirdly there was no sign of a cast or any broken bones, before, during or after the fight.

Would you rather be slightly unfit, or be head butted unconsious and concussed during a fight? .... hmmmm
