Yeah that was pretty nasty, even before the knockout he was taking some real damage. Amazing and embarrassing that a tub of lard like that is in contention at world title level.

Don't think Whyte has the nous to beat Wilder, but he will bring a lot of heart and will be up for the scrap.

Just watching some highlights, can't fault Browne for giving it a go but he stopped doing any damage from about the 2nd round, he was just taking hits until the last round but it was too late by then.

I do wonder what Whyte's thinking though, calling out Wilder - the two times Browne put up his gloves and gave a bit of a shove, Whyte's balance is atrocious. Maybe he'd worn himself out, maybe he got cocky by that point and knew that Browne wasn't going to follow it up but Wilder would and that's why I don't think Whyte would last more than five or six rounds.

Parker is 6/1 to win this, not knowing very much at all about boxing, should I be tempted? It seems a bit generous to me

Depends on how much you can afford to lose? I’d say he’s got an outside chance. He’s quicker than Joshua and a pretty negative fighter so if he plays it right it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that he frustrates AJ to a points win or gets lucky with a shot. However, I can’t see him coping with Joshua’s power tbh but if you can afford to lose £50 I could think or worse bets.

Joshua is a massive puncher who has won all his fights by knock out, he has a height and weight advantage and If he decides to stay behind a jab Parker is too small to get to him. Tbh I think there are better ways to piss away cash, go get a lap dance perhaps

Might not be as clear cut as some are making out. If Parker frustrates Joshua then AJ will tire eventually and leave himself open.
