Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte is one of the most talked about fights of the year. In an interview with 'The Lowdown' by Queensberry Promotions, Joseph Parker, a fellow heavyweight, spoke about the fight. He discussed why he thinks Fury is too much for Whyte to handle, and also gave Fury some tips to beat Whyte:
"I feel he has too much for Whyte. Size wise, power wise, strength. He can move, he can fight. And so I think he's gonna get Whyte out of there in the first six rounds."
The interviewer then asked him what 'The Gypsy King' needs to be wary of, going into the fight with 'The Body Snatcher'. Parker replied:
"Dillian's got a very strong counter left hook. I got caught with it once and he put me down so he has to be wary of that. But I think Tyson overall is too smart."
