Comments Thread For: Chisora: I Knew Parker Would Withdraw - Spider Bite? Whatever!

[VatoMulatto]

Chisora is a trash talker so he will of course claim that Parker is scared and didn't want to fight.

I know I’m making up my own version of events based on opinion but Parker hasn’t had much luck in UK

One judge gave Hughie an insulting number of rounds. Referee was fine and Fury fans probably think Parker was the lucky one

Italian Ref vs AJ effectively banned any medium range and inside fighting. We’ll never know who that helped but after the Ruiz fight, it looks like AJ benefited more.

Ref vs Whyte missed a really effective headbutt and helped Whyte survive the final round.

The Italian ref only did the one thing wrong when he stepped in after Parker came rushing in and stopped proceedings. The other few times is when he broke them up after they were doing nothing in the clinch. That's what refs are supposed to do. Watch it back if you don't believe me.

How was Parker mugged off by an accidental head clash that nobody saw until the third replay in slow-mo after the round? The same thing happened with Brook/Spence where Brook had his other eye socket broke. But Brook wasn't mugged off. Head clashes happen. It's just a part of the sport.

Whyte held on when hurt in the last round. That's what any fighter would do. But how did the ref help out with that?

Fair points, especially when compared to my conspiracy theories but I disagree about the AJ ref. He was breaking clinches before they got stuck in any kind stalemate all fight. It would be good reffing for an Okolie or Galahad so I can’t say it was corrupt.

Boy, Chisora has been the one ko'ed, and not Parker, so where does Chisora get his confidence from, ill have what hes having.?

But Parker must feel embarrassed that he made Chisoras predictions come true, a little like fury made his predictions come true about haye cancelling.
Maybe Parker needs to come out with a statement to make Chisora realize hes not a clairvoyant by night.
