    Personally, I love the idea of Parker and Fury hooked up. I like both guys.

    Parker has stagnated, totally, showing so few signs of improvement since, say, Ruiz, moving through the levels of comp has not helped him at all. Why not try a big change and a bit of a wildcard.

    I agree. The guy had promise but has stagnated.

    Hopefully a trainer and environment change will get him back on track.

    I think, with the right team around him, he can still make some noise.

    Paint Dry Parker stinks it up every time he gets in the ring and has been lucky to be on the receiving end of some dodgy decisions.

    Get Parker Chisora as the Fury AJ co-main.

    Well parker's only 29 so it's still do-able to make some changes.

    Going with Kronk's a good decision for the aggressive style changes that he needs.

    You never know, he might go from being Paint Dry Parker to Hit Man Joe

    I think Adam Booth would have been a good fit personally

    There goes the chance of Parker fighting Fury. I don't understand why Parker has this infatuation when it comes to Tyson Fury. He is not his childhood friend or something Parker acts like a total wimp when he is around Fury.

    Chuck - I agree

    But this is one time where I feel the "Kronk" effect may be worth the sacrifice
