    Sure would make a Wembley unification v Joshua very likely if they could both hold belts into the summer.

    Beating Parker is no sure thing though. I'd be mightily impressed if he took big Joe out. Where would the title shot happen? London or NZ?

    He would have to come down here. That's if they let the dodgy spongebob sideshow bob squarepants into the country with a visa.

    Either that, or Parker will start basing himself out of the MGM in Vegas.

    I expect Parker to smash Fatboy Ruiz with ease. The Parker v Haye fight would be very interesting, not sure who I would pick yet as I don't know how good Parker's chin is, if it's granite then I would favour him otherwise Haye by KO.

    Haye would lose.
    He's probably a 4-round fighter at most now.

    This is correct. Beating Haye would definitely set Joshua-Parker up as the big mega-fight Hearn has always preferred it to be.
    Wembley sounds right. Unless Parker becomes a Yank and goes 'Vegas, the big money will be the UK (AJ's home advantage) rather than New Zealand.

    Interesting fight, depends on Hayes stamina and Parkers chin.

    Parker is incredibly easy to hit and doesn't fight as well vs shorter opponents so could see haye finding his right hand quite easy to land

    Should Haye be ranked? He hasn't fought in approx. 1,000 years!

    It sure would be good if Haye stopped taking everyone for mugs and entered the ring against someone who was not paid to take a dive as his employee.

    It would be good. I am sure eventually he has to in order to earn some real money because he married a ***** and is now being divorced by it. However his mugs game is going to backfire on him eventually. Parker is the wrong opponent for him.

    Won't happen if Haye goes for one of the WBA belts. He will be removed from the WBO rankings.

    How's that happend???? The WBO what links has Haye got with the WBO he's fought no one during his comeback an ancient Briggs would have been his best opponent by light years.

    Really strange and Parker and Ruiz are both dangerous fights for him...You could say Ruiz has never had a coming out fight but he will pose Parker some problems with his hand speed and voume despite his condition

    Parker is fast and can crack and he's bigger than Haye and although he open to take a shot I don't think Haye has enough left at this level anymore - i cant see him beating either of these two if I'm honest

    I think Haye agrees with this statement- if he believed in himself, then why is he fighting low level opponents who are paid to take a dive against him?

    Surely he would have some confidence in his abilities- and enter a real fight? But clearly not, its just a con job

    Wrote an article about Haye early Sept. During research for it I was surprised to learn how highly he was ranked with the main 4 organisations - WBC 6, WBA 5, WBO 4 and IBF 3. Can't imagine things would've changed too drastically one way or another since then.
