Parker vs. Zhang rumoured to feature Joshua/Ngannou Undercard.

This is silly. Like Fury's twitter game. It's not to Parker to make the fight, it's up to the Saudis.

And can you give me the source of this info. As i just see the Parker Talksports interview, and he says he was asked a couple of names by the Saudi, and HE SAYS yes to everyone, and it's essentially up to the Saudi to decide against who he will be matched.

Again care to explain why Hrgovic last opponent was de Mori, and why he is not on the card?

And again he may very well not fight AJ, as this Turki guy says that the winner of AJ - Ngannou is going to face the winner of Usyk - Fury.

For god sake people, didn't you read the news or watched the press?

 

Hrgovic vs Agit Kabayel would be another good heavyweight scrap to narrow it down

 

Here is the whole interview, as i watched it all:

Now after you watch it i hope you understand why Parker ain't answer Hrgovic blatant cloud.

All those names that have been chucked at us, we’ve said yes to every one of them.

“I think it’s good to say yes and offer these fights, but there’s things that happen behind the scenes that we have to work on, in terms of negotiations and things like that.

“Every name like Zhang, Hrgovic or anyone – whatever they’ve said we’ve said yes to.”

It was ultimately to Turki, and he is the one that decide who will fight who.

 

Yes Ortiz also said he had injury.
All this poor people cant fight with Hrgovic...

Look at timeline dude. Zhang fight with Filip 1 month earlier in mandatory than Parker fight with Joyce.
He was ready after soo quick but no when IBF ask him. Off course xD

And Yes. Parker fight Wilder and Zhang and Hrgovic fight De Mori because no one afraid of Parker and all afraid of Filip.
You will see why in Zhang fight

List of ppl who official dont want fight with Filip is still long soo Your crying about he is no name dont change nothing.

 

Yeah they want the Chinese money for sure, Chinese tourism in 2021 accounted for $106 billion spent in the countries they travelled too. That's the whole purpose of these sporting events being paid to be held in places like Saudi Arabia and Qatar to create growth in their tourism for when their oil reserves run out.

It sucks for Hrgovic but reality is Croatian tourists don't bring much to the table when compared to Chinese tourists and then of course there's the viewing figures from a country of 1.4 billion Chinese compared to 3.89 million Croation's. Hence why Zhang was offered as a possible opponent to Joshua, Wilder and Parker.

 

You're contradicting yourself

If it's all up to Turki then how did Hrgovic duck

 

I'm not talking about Ortiz. I'm not going to waste my time researching what this or that guy have said. The reality is Hrgobic is a no name, and he is not interested for anyone, cause he doesn't bring money to the table. Obviously he is a big dude and bring risk.
That doesn't mean a s****, if he was bringing money to the table. No one would have "ducked" him then.

Now you are looking even more silly, as Zhang accepted to fight Hrgovic back in february. Parker fought Joyce in September.
Check your facts before talking nonsenses.

Parker took a 9 months lay out for his injuries to heal. If he was not injured, he would have fought in march/april/may as he was planned. They planned June/July date as way, but hat to be postponed, cause he wasn't ready.

Also Parker earned $3.3m. for Joyce fight.
Zhang earned $290k. for the Hrgovic fight and was robbed.
And no one is going to fight Hrgovic, as they will essentially be on a loss for fighting him money wise. If he start bringing money, people will be more interesting in fighting him.

Yeah you look silly, but don't give up.

And just to make it clear i'm from Bulgaria. And we have Pulev. Not once time i have been crying that this or that guy is ducking Pulev on here. Quite the opposite i knew and said it that this or that guy didn't want to fight Pulev at that time, cause he wasn't a draw.

Even though Pulev accused Klitschko, AJ and so on of ducking him at the time.
And we all know how that's end.

And lastly, i'm not Hrgovic hater. I'm unbiased. Check my previous posts of Hrgovic. I have always rate him highly.
Same for Zhang.

And finally i have Zhang beating Parker, but Parker has his chances. And he has his chances against Hrgovic too.

 

Again.
I agre with most but...
Ajagba, Kabayel and Sanchez (and other like him) must want fight with Filip and not wait for money shoots on higher level.
Problem is still that all this dudes would choose smth easier/paid better if they must loss.

Hrgovic reputation from sparing probably dont help here.

You see on Zhang example that If somebody want fight with Hrgovic he just take fight.

We will see what happend next but I dont see it bright. If they decide they dont need Filip in hw puzzle he can do nothing probably.

Same as this fight night. He was thread for Parker but few decision make him again loser in situation.
But I forget he is no name... xD
No name who beat "big name" Zhang...

 

All this shitty poems You write dont prove nothing what You trying talking about first.
U suggested that Filip is new Wilder and he ducked here.
You write it first. I react on this because that's soo stupid that I think even You are joking.

Now You said that Filip dont give money and he is risk fight so no wonder why they dont want fight with him. And u said its Saudi decision all...


Soo how You genius make this stupid idea that Filip is new Wilder and he ducked again because they dont give him next DeMori if You actually understand all situation clear?

I think You are probably troll... Only trolls writing stupid lies to see how other react on that ****.

Enough time for You mr. Belive longer that Hrgovic is next Wilder and he dont want Parker fight....

 

I can see Parker’s style being tricky for Zhang who had a **** gas tank. No wonder he ducked Hrgy bear. He would’ve crushed the ***** coward kiwi.

 

Yeah I see it

I favor Parker to beat Zhang but Hrgovic would definitely jab Parker wide. Its already happened before. I was hoping he would take the fight so Hrgovic would school him

 

When you look at the purses it's clear why Parker wouldn't fight Hrgovic and it has nothing to do with being afraid of losing to Hrgovic. As his promoter said the economics of it don't make sense. Hey Joseph you can fight Hrgovic for a few hundred thousand for fight Joyce for millions, what do you want to do? Obvious answer is take the fight that brings a multi million dollar payday. But to Hrgovic nut huggers that proves Parker is ducking Hrgovic.

Are people living in a fantasy land? Money drives this sport, always has and always will. Hrgovic is a good fighter and I really hope he gets the chance to prove how good he is and yes he's been ducked by plenty of guys but Parker has more than proved he is willing to fight anyone.

 

Eh if i'm writing a poems, what you are writing then ....
And you were the ones start it with the ducking. Cro(something) as well. Not just in this thread.

And is it that hard to get, that is not just 1 factor, but a combination of factors why X doesn't fight Y fighter?

Parker doesn't give a s*** how "scarry" you are. He fought them all. So claiming Parker ducked him and pulling absolutely horse **** to try and convince people that he ducked Hrgovic back in the day and now is absolutely pathetic.
And i was never a Parker fan, but the guy is super likeable and never ducked anyone. He is the definition of a true warrior, willing to fight everyone.

I made a comparison with Wilder and Hrgovic. Because Wilder was literally the same all talk. They all were ducking him, it was always the other guy fault why this or that fight hasn't been made.

And Wilder just of today prove that he was everything i was thinking of him, aka the lowest you could imagine.
Ducking the fight that could bring him back to the big stage, as well as prolly record money for that fight.

And let's see who is the troll, guy who didn't even check his info, cause he is too eager to accuse someone of ducking, and ignore all the facts, and somehow trying to make a case why Parker or X guy should have fought Hrgovic for 10x time less.

I told you, you are a decent poster, but your bias is speaking now.

 

If money is most important just be happy when Fury choosing Ngannou fight not complain next time.

I dont care how much they earn because still one of the biggest pay day on combat sport was **** fight McGregor vs old Floyd. For me as fan it was tragedy not celebration reason.

And now Parker second time go other way not fight Filip. Im pretty sure that his earnings will be similar for both match- Zhang and Filip here in Saudi but for some reason Zhilei get shot not Filip who beat Chinese.

You can call it whatever You want. You can belive no one is ducking Hrgovic.
Its up to You how You call it.

Just read what mr Lordlosh write here in thread first. Hrgovic shat himself AGAIN, he dont want fight with anybody, he ducked because he is not on the card and he is next Wilder.

I fight with this statement. I dont force anybody to see Parker decision like me. You can think he is hero here.
