Would Browne vs. Parker be a massive fight in the Asia-Pacific region?

    Would this make both men more money compared to them individually targeting guys from Europe like AJ or Haye?

    Can't imagine.
    It's also doubtful if a guy like Parker would go for a minor belt instead of one of the major ones, that -let's face it- all have very beatable beltholders right now.

    Yes huge.

    This is the area that can make Mundine-Greene, and Tua-Cameron into megafights.

    I cant even imagine how big a fight between 2 legitimate world class HWs would be

    WBA belt is still considered a world title, Rob.

    And, the first all Oceanic heavyweight title fight btx two undefeated heavyweights would do massive business in that region.

    Between Browne, Fury and AJ/Martin .. it seems to me for Parker Browne is an excellent risk/reward setup. Potentially big payday and good chance to win the belt, even if it's a minor one. Also, I believe owning the WBA regular belt guarantees a shot at the super-champion (which should be Fury/Wlad still?) within 18 months I think. So that'd be another big payday, albeit a higher risk one.

    It would be a massive KO for Parker.

    It would definitely be a sell-out if staged in NZ, and would generate a lot of media attention. I think this is a good match-up for Parker, imo he beats Browne due to superior hand speed.

    Not IMO it would sell out a NZ stadium but not a big Aussie stadium. It would be big but not massive boxings not big in Australia.
