    @kiwiinmelb agree entirely. Joshua did catch Joe with a couple of glancing blows - but he didn't show crazy power or anything. Maybe he'd have gone harder if Joe had shown more aggression or rocked him earlier. Joshua is a talented dude, no doubt, but his ring craft isn't quite as exciting as he looks.

    There is only one current boxer i look at and think , how do you beat this bloke ? with a gun perhaps , and that is triple g at middleweight.,

    Joshua deserves his top ranking , I don’t see that same level as invincibility I see in golovkin though , not yet anyway .

    Dillian Whyte Vs. Joseph Parker Is “the People’s Eliminator”, But Should It Be Pay-per-view?

    Dillian Whyte Vs. Joseph Parker Is “the People’s Eliminator”, But Should It Be Pay-per-view?

    Dillian Whyte and Joseph Parker have a lot to thank Anthony Joshua for ahead of their intriguing July 28 pay-per-view fight, writes Elliot Worsell.

    A mate of mine is pretty close to JP and mentioned this as most likely option a couple of weeks back. As a result I was quite surprised to see One News mention Jennings as next opponent.

    Both fighters with the one and only loss, and to Joshua. Whyte currently slight fav in early betting markets,

    Apparently they were in negotiation with Jennings ,

    Likewise Whyte with Ortiz ,

    But both were having difficulties coming to final agreements , Hearn and Higgins got talking , and made this happen instead , they say it wasnt long term planning , but because they know each other well , they were able to get it happening quickly .

    There’s a fight. It is on tonight. There could be a winner and a loser, maybe even both, maybe neither.

    Whyte with a little trash talking, JP says he’s coming in as the angry man.

    Could be duelling windmills.

    Hoping Parker can sit this guy on his ass. Needs to throw some bombs to be a risky but compelling option for Joshua.

    Whyte wants an open, loose fight. Could be fireworks

    Parker should win comfortably but don't be suprised to see Whyte win by robbery as you usually see on Matchroom run shows.

    Will be fireworks early...hopefully!

    Parker there to make a statement, well so they say. Let’s see what happens once the bell rings

    @mn5 Based on Whyte being very over-rated, coming in overweight and the fact that Parker is better than him in every department. Whyte hasn't beaten anyone decent (won a robbery against a past it Chisora) and if he wasn't promoted by Eddie Hearn he'd be nowhere.

    Parker getting torched. No defense at all in this fight. Whyte well ahead at this point.

    Wow looks like the ridiculous KD in round 2 has really affected Parker mentally.

    Unless Parker flukes a knockout in the last couple of rounds, he is done and will never get another big fight again

    If that's all it takes, Parker has no business being in these fights.

    For a fighter with t-rex arms, fighting on the back foot is not the way.

    @sammyc Yeah long way back for him after this. He'll either have to spend a year or 2 fighting low level journeymen or become a gatekeeper similar to Chisora/Takam.

    Whyte going roughouse seemed to affect Parker.

    @hydro11 Agreed, I thought he was better than this. Still not massive on Whyte personally but Parker has been extremely disappointing.
