    In Sauidi. He not Parker, should be boxing Zhang. While affable Joe gets Francis.
    Ant’s win over the docile Wallin, is meaningless.
    Parker deserves Ngannou after defusing the “atomic bomb” in December.
    It’s as if the 2 Usyk fights never happened with these “glad to be there” types in the Middle Eastern sink hole singing for their supper!
    Swanning into an alphabet title fight by beating an mma opponent isn’t good enough. Joshua should fight Zhang, a proven commodity !

    Chisora walking around wondering where his share of the Saudi Loot went.

    Hearn looking to put Chisora v Bugner on the undercard of Connor Henn v OAP Manny Pac fight next year.

    Spat my tea out at that. Knowing the Hearns it's more likely to be Bruno!

    Zhang is too high risk low reward as he’s not known by casuals for AJ. Parker needs big wins to force a title shot and up his ranking as he’s not box office enough for casuals

    Joshua the only guy I think del boy hasn't fought.

    Choose a sparring partner over shot old wilder.

    Why should AJ fight all the difficult fights whilst fury swans around knocking over cans and claiming to be the best. AJ has paid his dues, he's got by far the best resume you can't knock him taking a few easier ones after those two losses to usyk. His next fight will be a big un let's just hope its fury although I doubt it.

    Not one to defend AJ but a lot of people thought Ngannou just beat the lineal world heavyweight champion and generational great that is Tyson Fury.. plus if Parker beats Zhang tonight on the back of his Wilder performance, AJ’s stock continues to rise. For what it’s worth, I’m 50/50 on the Zhang/Parker fight and only 60/40 favouring AJ tonight
