Joseph Parker vs Dereck Chisora II set for December 18th

Senseless fight. Doesn't do anything for Parker if he is intending on challenging for a belt again.

 

Keeps him busy and makes money

More going on than 90% of HWs.....

 

True, while many hardcore fans will be going "meh" for this rematch as it's a fight between 2 heavies who's careers seem to be going nowhere and whatever the result won't have much impact on the direction of the division the casuals will probably not care as long as it's fun to watch and so will probably still pay to watch it.

 

If it's to stay active I can see this fight being made , but if it's supposed to advance Parker's career I agree with what seems to be a consensus,,a pointless fight where the winner is pretty much where he already is.

 

Maybe the Joyce fight was hard to make....

 

Yes it would have been, seeing one is promoted by Hearn and the other promoted by Warren.

 

YAWNS in his morning coffee....

 

Good fight. But almost every fight with Chisora is good.

 

Yeh, parker still sells tickets because some fans are still actually waiting for him to prove he has it.

What they fail to realise is...

He doesn't have it, he's on delboys level , hence the rematch, because most people know these boys level, and this is it.

Where should parker go next I hear you ask, well.... is butterbean still fighting?

 

I would sooner see both Parker and Chisora fight other opponents.

Parker-Hrgovic
Chisora-Makhmudov

Would be interesting fights.

 

I think falls into the risk vs reward category. Parker is likely making close to the same money for this fight as he would for a Hrgovic fight, with a lot less risk.

Chisora is likely making more money for the Parker fight (whom he does no fear) vs the dangerous Makhmudov.

 

Only if the belts splinter....

 

I feel like Parker’s career is on the line in this rematch. When they fought back in May I was t mad bout Parker getting the win. The fight could have gone either way or been a draw. I was only mad bout the bs 116-111 scorecard.
