    "I've heard some noises and frankly that is a fight with interest," Parker's manager David Higgins said.

    "We'd endorse it and there is interest from Parker, and our management team would endorse it.

    "There was a lot of talk in the past. The fight was contracted at one point. I think that fight makes sense."

    "They would want to do it in the UK. I would challenge Chisora and David Haye to come down to New Zealand to do it," said Higgins.

    Parker doesnt want anything to do with Del Boy. He is finished at top level.

    Could go either way, but I'd say Del Boy wins.

    Chisora is declined and Parker will outbox him, but this fight would do nothing for him getting another title shot. It feels to me that his management team is milking his name for what it's worth and looking to cash him out.

    Good clash for me. I expect Parker to have enough to outbox him but depending on motivation levels this could be all over the place. A welcomed step up from Parker's recent opponents and inactivity

    Then it should be an even bout, at worst, for Parker. Chisora's never been top level and he's certainly nowhere near it now.
