    The announcement came today in New Zealand.

    Virtually a done deal, apparently. For the #1 Mandatory spot with IBF.

    May 2016. Parker vs Takam.

    Who wins?

    I do not support the non-European Anglosphere, therefore I pick and cheer for Takam. :good

    Great news.:happy And he'll smash Takam with ease and then all of AJ's supporters will say Takam is a bum and doesn't hold a candle to Dillian Whyte.

    I'm a big Parker fan and my confidence in Parker winning - or at least winning with ease isn't as high as yours, but my confidence in AJ supporters calling Takam a bum if Parker wins is beyond high, it's a complete certainty.

    Parker is going to smash AJ if they meet in the ring. Hopefully, Super Hans doesn't hide AJ under his bed as well.

    The specifics are to be ironed out but the fight is happening - IBF have demanded it and both Takam and Parker are down for it.

    Well maybe if certain people didn't continually downgrade Joshua while talking about how great Parker is and how Parker would beat him etc...

    I think Parker and Joshua are on the same level, and provided Parker wins this, a match-up is gonna be v v exciting. It's a very impressive step up on Parker, and I applaud him for taking this risk so early in his career.

    Maybe if people would shut the **** up about how Joshua is an unstoppable beast, the next Lennox Lewis, the baddest man on the planet, and a future all time great maybe we wouldn't call bull**** on him so much.

    Parker might not even get by Takam yet.

    Meanwhile AJ will be ANOTHER British world champion for you to get BUTTHURT about

    There's really no need to get so annoyed just because some people think Joshua has potential and will become the best in the division.
