    Should sell some PPVs locally as well as boost Parker in the WBO rankings seeing as he's ranked third and Fa sixth.

    Since he lost against Whyte he's been fighting nobodies and still considered top 10.

    He needs to step up and fight someone decent.

    If Parker fought like he looks in the picture he would be ranked number 1 in the heavyweight division.

    Parker smokes this bum with ease. Fa has been on borrowed time for a while.

    Cool been waiting for this one to get made. Hopefully the hype of a big domestic fight lights a fire under Parker and we see his best for a change. Parker UD

    Fa will be lucky if he makes it out of the first round.

    Just a wages fight I guess , Parker needs to get a wiggle on post covid , he's still top 10 imo .

    Parker should indeed win easily, he's too good for Fa. But because of their history and Joe's long layoff, I suspect it will be a cautious start to the fight.

    Hmmm thinking about whether I should go to this or not. Surely they can put on a decent undercard for this.

    Oh, and Parker to stop him in the 5th. I'd back Fa's mate Hemi Ahio to beat Fa tbh, along with Demsey McKean and even Leapai. This is a massive mismatch.

    Fa's had an even longer layoff and struggled against Vargas for large parts of the fight.
