With the recent announcement that Michael Hunter has forfeited the eliminator shot against Hrgovic, it puts Parker in a very good spot to get the title eliminator. Charles Martin was first in line but apparently turned his shot at Hrgovic down. Usyk is more than likely fighting AJ next, so Parker would be in the running. Alen Babic is trying to make noise, but it's very unlikely he gets a shot - given his profile. If this goes ahead, who've you got?
Fellow Kiwi and Parker fan but at this rate unless something improves in Parker i see Hrgovic winning
I hear you! Parker has been disappointing for the last 4 years to say the least... Hopefully the Brits can light a fire under his ass. Interesting prediction - I'm not saying you're wrong, but what do you base this on? Parkers lack of interest since the Whyte loss?
Parker is a more experienced fighter than Hunter and this could be good, I favor Hrgovic but anything is possible, Parker can progress in the meantime, the same goes for Hrgovic...
My understanding is Team Hrgovic want him to be active as Hunter wasted their time for 6 month. They have look d at the possibility of Babic in Croatia and then the Parker fight in September / October given he’s just fought.
I doubt Parker's team go this route. The risk/reward isn't particularly great. As for who would win, it really depends whether you rate Hrgovic or not....
Two boring dudes boxing each other to an anti-climactic decision where Parker hits the canvas once and just absorbs Hrgovics robotic punches to a UD loss.
