PARKER PRESS CONFERENCE OFFICIAL THREAD

The Hearn fans should know that. Parker has been clear in what they want but Hearn hasn't said his offer. Parkers team have been respectful to Hearn I guess in not revealing it. Hell Hearn wont say his own offer so it must be bad.

Fair play to Parkers team. They are getting a bit of traction!

If they can get social media on their side (Hearns number 1 tactic) then they ar doing very well.

 

Literally begging for an undeserved payday.

 

When you have an absolute bigot
/***** of a trinket belt holder in Joshua who has a greedy promoter who wants to split the revenue 90/10 this is the shenanigans that you have to do to get a fight with a coward. ****en stiff ass coward.

So you think Hearn should just throw money they don’t deserve at Parker or Wilder for that matter. If I were Hearn I’d just offer both a flat fee and tell them to forget % splits.

Parker and Wilder normally earn anywhere between $750,000 and $1.8 Million a fight, the precedent set by Hearn when fighting a beltholder was $4.5 Million to Charles Martin.

Given that this is a unification fight and using the numbers above I’d offer out a flat fee of $6.5 Million to Parker & Wilder, the first one to respond gets the fight.

There’s no financial risk being taken by either Parker or Wilder promoters and if they’re as confident of winning as they say then they’ll know that a rematch and a second big payday would follow.

 

Jesus that is excruciating to watch, fking amateur hour or what and the subject matter of Joshua being dropped is reaching to the extreme. well no excuses for the pun fellas but knock yourselves out but I’m not sure who you’re trying to convince other than yourselves.

 

Like Eddie Hearn / Joshua or not...

How can anyone say an offer of 6/7/8 times your biggest pay date is disrespectful?!

These guys should be jumping at the chance to fight AJ for 1 million dollars and then if he’s as bad as you say then you become a unified world champion and a superstar and now you’re holding all the aces for the big pay days in future.

 

Thats the whole problem with this 'AJ doesnt have a chin' agenda that they are trying to peddle, its counter intuitive, because it just leaves people to ask... OK you accept your not the draw but you think you will knock him out...well if thats the case take the offer and fight if you will win so easy.

 

Exactly if it's such an easy fight, take it for whatever they offer you'll earn even more in the rematch when you are champion.

It's just a weak attempt to rile Hearn and put pressure on him to secure the fight. But Hearn is not going to fall for these type of shenanigans, knowing even if he doesn't take the fight, Joshua's next fight will like sell 80k, be on PPV and make Joshua an 8 figure sum. The casuals will keeping forking out the cash unfortunately because they don't have a clue.

 

100% I was thinking about this yesterday... being realistic how much bigger is the AJ vs Parker than the Takam/Pulev (I include pulev because majority of the build up he was facing pulev) fight...

I don't honestly think it would be much bigger... they would more than likely sell out a stadium, PPV would be strong but would it be so much bigger and the global event that Higgins is talking about? no. I think it would slightly bigger than Takam fight... Wilder as much as I hate to admit has the potential of a mega fight.

I still want to see it dont get me wrong but as you said AJ brings a a huge crowd and huge UK PPV anyway how much does fighting Parker increase that?... not much

 

i was playing on a famous case in the mid 80s when spys bombed the greenpeace ship in auckland to shut them up.

 

It doesn’t.

 

Maybe it brings them the attention they want but as a Kiwi I was cringing through that whole thing. Was like the Duco guys smashed back a few crates of Double Brown over the weekend, conceived this idea for a conference halfway through then organised it directly after. Total amateur hour. Parker needs a new trainer and a new promoter ASAP

 

I watched 2 minutes of this and the hair on the back of my neck was standing up from cringing. This was so terrible I don't know what Duco are thinking? Maybe this was supposed to be some sort of Saturday Night Live kind of sketch? Some sort of parody of a 'professional boxing press conference"?
