So, after the "controversial" (it was not controversial) KO win from the weekend, Parkers team is eyeing up their next opponent. Regardless of his age, the next target is much more experienced and threatening to the kiwi prospect.

His team is eyeing up a fight against Kali Meehan. Kali is keen but the fight is yet to be signed.
Some will wonder why Meehan. Well, Meehan sent local Kiwi cruiser/heavyweight fighter Shane Cameron into retirement. Cameron was heard around the globe a couple of years ago for his devastating one punch KO over journeyman Monte Barret.

Anyone who has seen Kali fight knows he is a big lad with a big heart. He is a tough SOB. His worst fight coming against Travis Walker

Kali is 6 foot 5 which should be a step up again for Parker. Someone with Kali's strength, reach and height will make for an interesting match up.

Although Parker has several advantages (speed, power and age) he has been seen to be susceptible to over hand rights. A fighter like Meehan could cause troubles for a prospect like Parker.

Meehan - 42(32) 5(3) 0
Parker - 15(13) 0 0

Who you got?

I think this would make for a really interesting fight! I'll go to this if it happens. Kali doesn't pack glass, but he has been KO'd by much less dangerous (speed and power) fighters than Parker and really while trying my best not to seem like I'm just on the bandwagon I feel like a Parker win by KO will be only a matter of time in this fight, but Meehan won't come in like Tupou and has the height advantage so there should be some boxing in this match.

Really I think anyone who is going to beat Parker is going to have to have a granite chin and / or very good defense - its clear that so long as Parker is in a fight there are going to be KO-capable bombs coming out of nowhere and everything could change at any time. He can take a hard hit and he can go the distance, that's all proven... so I ultimately don't see that Kali has heaps other than a SLIGHT size advantage and cunning to keep him in the fight.

This is a great fight that makes sense in Auckland but a tough fight with a lot of risk. But if he has it in mind to fight for a title in the not too distant future testing himself like this might be the way to go.

Mismatch Parker wins by KO in 2 rounds or less.

Back in 2011, I sat at the Mana Bar, dealing stud, while a mangy dog sat outside, tied to a plinth, visible through the window. I was drinking tap water, much to my dismay. The waitress approached, asked me if I needed a refill. "Of what?" I asked, testily, glaring at her cleavage. She didn't want any lip and walked away in a huff. I looked back at the cold-eyed stranger in front of me and asked him if he could tell me the waitress' eye colour without looking.

He told me to quit kidding around, that he had things to do. All of a sudden, the mangy dog outside began to bark, but at what? A snake, appearing from nowhere, as though out of an old, worn-out picture that would belong to a bearded, bald man's mother. The stranger stood up, threw the cards at my chest, told me it was time to "fight fire with fire" and walked to the dog, who was now going berserk. He made his way outside and all of the townspeople followed the big fella, while murmuring excitedly. Me, well, I took to the streets with no recourse, of course, and by the time I hobbled out, there he was, beating the snake into a bloody pulp with his pecker, the dog not only calmed but watching in an awestruck silence.

"My GOD!" said one of the townsfolk. "That's Kali Meehan beating that snake to death with his pecker!" he finished. "Strewth!" yelled the townsfolk's gawking companion, his face at a blush, his jean shorts growing damp. When Meehan was done, he zipped up and turned to the dog, patting him on the head. "You're a good boy." he said, pulling a piece of jerky from his breast pocket and throwing it to the animal. He locked eyes with me, coldly- oh, so coldly.

"So, you're no stranger anymore, are you, sailor?" I asked, rhetorically. "There's only one thing strange about me, partner, and everybody likes to see it come out and enforce the law, every now and again." said Meehan. We finished our game. Though, I've played tougher card-players, I really can't remember when. I suppose that's all you really need to say about one Mr. Kali Meehan.

This is a severe mismatch for Meehan who will be beaten to a pulp much like Botha. Parker is way too much for him and his speed and power will get Kali out of there quickly within 3.

Would like for Meehan to win, but hard to imagine it at this stage of their respective careers.
