I think Parker anticipated getting inside and fighting there. In that case an extra 10 pounds is actually useful, that kind of fighting requires some mass. Unfortunately Giuseppe wasn't cool with that kind of fighting.

In Parker's case bigger means fatter and I don't think being fatter makes a boxer take punches better. He still has the same head and a bigger waist line won't improve his chin. If that was the case Stiverne should have had an iron jaw for the Wilder rematch. Parker fought a safety first retreating type of fight and took few risks after promising a KO win. He just didn't try very hard to win. He fought like he just wanted to go the distance.
How could Parker win from the outside? Wasn't gonna happen
Poor officiating, but Parker didn't have enough weapons either

He was lighter than his previous weight, his weight wasn’t really a problem. The issue was he came to sell his belt, the irony was he complained about Hughie Fury fighting that way in his last fight, as a champ in a unification fight I was expecting more from him. But he was content (As AJ TOO) to lose as long as he wasn’t KTFO.
