But he boxed to a brilliant gameplan over ten rounds, with honest ringside pundit and former world champ Carl Frampton only giving Buatsi ONE round.
But English official Marcus McDonnell and visiting Salvador Salva somehow scored it 96-94 to Buatsi and Grzegorz Molenda saw it 95-95 draw.
The high-profile win would have been life-changing for Parker and his family.
And even though his underrated Black Country Boxing team will appeal the decision, it’s a crushing financial and sporting blow to the 12st 7lb man.
Choking back tears, Parker said: “I am fuming.
“I won it easy. I outjabbed him all night, and every single person I spoke to between the ring and the dressing room told me I won.
“I am only in boxing to better my family’s life, so you’ll take it away from me is a joke
“I should be changing my daughter and unborn baby’s life with this win. He never won a round or landed a punch on me
“Everyone has eyes, he never landed a clean shot on me. I am p***ed off. It’s a joke. I gave him one early round, he couldn’t catch me, I was comfortable.”
Ringside pundits and former world champs , Darren Barker and Barry Jones all had Parker winning convincingly.
But somehow two paid officials thought the total opposite.
Straight-talking Irishman Frampton said: “For someone like me, who has been around boxing all of my life, I cannot understand that decision.
“I gave Buatsi ONE round.”
