    I honestly think the fight warrants a rematch. He can beat Wardley. Stoppage was crap.

    Def hope for a rematch.

    Especially if Usyk does not opt for Wardley

    If more heavyweights fought each other they'd have a few bumps in the road too.

    @Rumsfeld great video as always. It will be interesting to see their next move. Stoppage was premature but it's clear he's not optimal at a higher weight anyway. I'd expect a lighter Parker to win the rematch if offered, or to chase more fighters in the top ten like AJ/Dubios

    Parker should've waited for the mandatory Usyk fight instead of fighting Wardley. He would've been paid at least $5M, which would be his retirement fund. Unfortunate.

    So did Wardley after beating the **** out of him with about 57 unanswered punches battering a near corpse with no answer.

    If anyone got the short end of the stick it was Wardley who had him badly hurt and his gumshield magically fell out right when he was in serious trouble.

    The discrediting of Wardley's legitimate underdog victory online is tragically imbecilic.

    Just a solid comeback fight away from being back in title contention. That wasnt a real loss.

    Time for the Dillian White rematch? Maybe Ajagba, Sanchez?

    Then Kabayel, Dubois, Hrgovic.

    Take the Whyte or Joyce rematch And step up to a top 10 guy again. Why not. Parker didn’t look washed in there it was competitive at times even tho I question Parker’s weight gain and game plan. He can come back but he needs to make sure he comes in with right approach working with strengths

    Should fight Justis Huni. A live opponent not a dead one like those being mentioned. The man who Kiwis dare not speak his name.
