Our Pick:
Parker by KO @ 3.23
Parker by KO in rounds 9-12 @ 9.00
If Parker loses this fight his career is over. He cannot lose to Chisora he is HW leftovers that has been beat by all the other top guys. He shouldn’t be fighting lower level guys like Chisora. He’s too good for people like him. It’s a step down.
His previous fight with Whyte was that he was getting roughed up and he didn’t know how to answer. If Chisora does the same thing which he definitely will it’s going to be a tough night for Parker. That being said, Chisora is built like a murder truck and a KO in the later rounds is highly possibly.
As for Parker, he bored us with a full 12 rounds in his last fight against Junior Fa. This was billed as a massive fight between two power punches, and it was awful. There wouldn’t have been a knockout if they were still fighting now – and that fight was back in February.
We hope this fight is nothing like that for us bettors. For the sake of heavyweight boxing and Pay Per View events, this needs to end in a knockout. Saying that, we have to back a winner and we are going for Parker to stop the Chisora late on, in rounds 9-12. It won’t be a classic, but Parker should have too much for pressure for Parker. Parker would be playing a dangerous game not trying to stop Chisora. Judges will likely favour the Home Boy.
Feeling lucky?
