    Can he beat Joyce? Hrgovic?

    Could he trouble Usyk? What about AJ or Wilder?

    Havent watched tonights fight yet but Parker beats Joyce and Hrgovic without too much drama. Usyk outpoints him in a wide margin though and a pre Fury Wilder KO's him. Stands a chance of a points decision against AJ

    I reckon he will be the WBO #1 contender, and thus will probably wait for a shot at Uysk.

    He won't beat Usyk.

    He won 8 or 9 rounds with 3 knockdowns today and still only won by 2 points on one of the cards. He could have a knockdown every round in a fight vs AJ and you'd still have AJ as the favourite going to the cards.

    I was talking actual results not paid off judges

    I think that is the route he is going. Parker holds the WBO international title, and Joyce is currently #1 by default.

    I hope they call Joyce v Parker as a final eliminator.

    Edit: sorry, that should be WBO inter-continental title (can't keep track of these belts)

    He has definitely shaken off the Paint Dry Moniker and he was a lot more aggressive and effective in his work.

    But he still suffers from the same fatal flaw. He had Chisora finished at least 3 times and just needed to throw with aggressive intent to get the referee to jump in. But he stood off and let Chisora get away with it.

    Joyce beats him if they ever fight.

    But based on that performance he will start getting knock outs again

    Hrgovic vs Parker ? That's good
    Hearn did terrible job for Hrgovic until now.

    There should be no reason why Mr Hearn can't make this fight happen. At the very least, Chisora for Hrgovic next as Chisora seems happy to continue fighting.

    For some reason it wouldn't surprise me if we see Parker in with someone like Demsey McKean next.

    Agreed , Joyce v Parker would be a very interesting match up failing that Hrgovic v Parker would be a nice fight also .

    He needs improved Stamina, angles and quicker feet. His hands were very fast and it looked like he was throwing for real tonight.
