    Wants to fight on Joshua's undercard. Pathetic.

    He will get KTFO when Joshua faces him.

    It is the Matchroom way now.

    1. Opponent on the undie card
    2. Post fight interviews to build artificial hatred to sell Pay per Poos.
    3. Same as 2. above with the smelly socks are off etc.
    4. The fight turns out to be one sided as expected.

    The process repeats with the next dumpling.

    Matchroom are the ones holding this deal up because they want to hype it up more.

    Parker has been ready for that filthy hoodlum since April but AJ's team was in no rush to make the fight happen, so Parker had to keep himself busy. He isn't David Haye who is going to sit on his bum and wait for title shots.

    I think Parker needs to gradually go up to the World Level with another 2 fights against a couple of top level fighters on the way down such as Fury and Wlad.

    Even though Fury is the Champion, he will be stripped of all belts soon, his desire has gone and Wlad's time at the top has passed.

    Hearn believes there's sense in giving Britain a chance to see Parker ahead of a world title fight and that would also allow him time to make the Kiwi's clash for the belt "100 per cent bigger".

    Parker's handlers at Duco Events have indicated March was the likely scenario they were looking at now. They have a good working relationship with Hearn.

    Hearn continued to be cagey but his preference is for a March date.


    Yeah...it's Parkers team holding things up.. #sarcasm

    Im pretty sure it was actually Parkers team that suggested he fights on the undercard to build AJ fight.

    You just need to ask 1 question...

    Who is holding the cards?

    Answer: Eddie Hearn

    If Parker and his team wanted the fight they'd be trying to demand it now. :good

    They've accepted an undercard offer as they know Parker isn't nearly good enough and once he gets KTFO he will be exposed for the hype job that he is.

    Demand it? The mandatory doesn't get called until the end of November.

    Don't bother. You may as well be talking to a brick wall trying to discuss boxing with the OP. He's either chosen to ignore or doesn't know that the mando shot can't even be enforced before November.

    Eddie sees it as a no-lose situation for him, if Parker wins it will prob be by highlight reel KO, introducing him to more casual UK boxing fans with a bang. If Price scores an upset then he's the new mando and an easy sell as a former olympian, sparring partner etc.

    I'm gonna pick AJ to do a number on the immensely overrated Pulev and then give him a 70/30 chance of dispatching Parker who is definitely one of the more promising heavyweights out there at the minute.
