    I see Parker has been sparring with Bermaine Stiverne... who seems a bit overkill for Kali Meehan, but still good to see quality work being done. Guessing they may be preparing for December as well...

    I just hope Parker, Joshua, Usyk or whoever comes after Wlad won't follow a similar route to Wilder. We need an exciting HW division with constant unification bouts.

    AJ i would say. Parker a close second. Even though Parker is a bit more advanced in his pro career right now.

    I'm not sure if he's better than Parker and Usyk yet. And you better prepare yourself for Hrgovic, Omarov and maybe Medhzidov and Dychko. I don't see Joshua being levels above than those guys.

    Yeah and Eunich Jr would do the same to GGG according to you.

    Parker now at #10 in the IBF, #5 in the WBO. His team says he will aim to be Mandatory in one of those within a year. They have a plan to fight Top-10 guys from April onward.

    A great year ahead for Parker.

    There are rumors Parker may fight Whyte.

    Where did you get that? I know there has been discussion in the NZ Boxing forum but for some bizarre reason I was banned from there when I tried joining - someone doesn't like me? :blood

    Haven't even had a chance to do anything! :( I filled out my registration and all that stuff then got my confirmation email - followed the link and it said I'm banned, tells me to send an EMail or PM to the admin but I can't PM (banned afterall) and I sent an EMail months ago with no response.

    One way or another, when I try and sign in it says I'm banned and I can't even peruse harmlessly :(
