    After needing a hometown decision to beat Ruiz I think Parkers team rather he lost to Wilder than to someone like Hughie Fury. Don't see anything in Parker that can trouble Wilder. Maybe they're hoping he can land a big shot but I dont see it happening, Parker has T-Rex arms and Wilder uses his length very well.

    I agree Parker vs Ruiz could have gone either way but both Parker and Ruiz stop Wilder easily. Its not wilders fault he is ****, please dont talk Wilder into a situation (eg parker vs wilder) where he loses his life or at least his ability to speak his own name ever again

    So any news on Parker's next fight?
    Is it Hughie 'Zit King' Fury?

    Wilder gets troubled by the likes of Eric Molina; a beast like Parker would give him plenty to think about. Wilder could keep him at bay if he fought a disciplined fight, but when was the last time he did that? He even wanted to mix it up in the Stiverne fight. He can't avoid getting into a tear up. Parker would be at a distinct advantage there.

    I'd prefer Wilder obviously, but the more realistic option is Hughie. Two months is too short a turnaround for a fight of this magnitude, and with Wilder's track record you can bet there'll be some complication in the mix.

    Fight is all wrong for Parker. I don't buy it. They're only making noise. That belt is going to be milked in NZ against bums for at least a year.

    Just a quick FYI, it's the WBO not the WBC. Parker cannot pick and choose his mandatories, unlike Deontay "Voluntary King" Wilder.

    Would love to see this fight and will be near Vegas in April anyway

    Tough to judge based on their opponents but I think Parker is the better fight and should be able win on points or late stoppage

    All depends on if his orthodox style can ope with the erratic WIlder
