    You can see how jittery his promoters are getting. Obviously Hearn thinks he can lowball them.

    I see Duco walking away and signing Browne to fight.

    I give it 2 weeks before that happens. Watch and see.

    Parker-browne at this point is highly likely. Still hoping for Joshua-parker to happen next.

    Agree. Hearn doesn't appear to want the Parker fight for Joshua.

    Joshua will murder Parker

    Parker is best fighting a few more stiffs like Puff Daddy Browne and milking that belt before cashing out with a KO lose to Joshua

    This. Parker's promoters aren't the sharpest tools in the shed. If they were more patient and willing to wait till early next year to begin serious negotiations they would've had more leverage. By offering to take 35% so quickly they came off like starving wolves and showed Hearn they are complete amateurs. I doubt Hearn will even over 30% now.

    30% - yes

    Maybe the last chance...

    parker hasn't been fighting in the US or the UK, he's been minimising his stock by fighting mostly in and around NZ. "playing ball", if you really want to get a good deal at the negotiating table, means developing an international profile
    team parker has done nothing to help there's, so they are their own worst enemies in negotiations

    I don't think there has been an offer from Hearn, and it is starting to sound like there won't be one.

    Parker will probably fight Browne.

    Joshua will probably fight Whyte again.

    What is Parker getting in USD for Browne compared to for AJ

    If he can get 2 million for both then he obviously goes for Browne.

    If the Browne fight only pays 1 million and AJ pays 3 million then he would be a fool to turn the AJ fight down no matter what the split.

    Parker vs Browne. Coming off a PED suspension and a victory Matt ''Gator'' Greer who probably had Cletus,cousin Merle and uncle Goober as his cornermen. Isn't boxing in Australia/NZ great.:ohno

    Joshua-Whyte II sounds like one hell of an enthralling prospect.

    You are probably right. Ideally it would be good to see AJ v Parker with Whyte v Browne on the under card.

    Hearn offered 20% Higgins replied it was an insult.

    Or if you don't believe that type''Higgins considers 20% offer for a unification fight an insult''into google.

    Yet in this part of the world we are yet to see a fighter win by KO by throwing a bunch of punches which hit nothing but air.
