RE: Joseph Parker - Dannyboy - 10-21-2016 Interesting that they're going to hold it at Vector Arena... I guess there's no other venue in NZ with a closed roof for this type of event. Vector Arena holds 1200 people max... not that many for a title fight I would have thought, expect ticket prices to be sky high!! But certainly great for Boxing NZ... well done Duco. RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 10-21-2016 It’s official. Parker versus Ruiz for vacant WBO title in New Zealand By David Finger The biggest story out of the WBO Convention in San Juan Puerto Rico came this morning at the championship and ratings committee meeting. Although there was talk of a possible four-man tournament to fill the recently vacated heavyweight title, which was surrendered by Tyson Fury, Carl Moretti of Top Rank and Parker’s promoter Dean Lonergan announced that the box off was not necessary. They announced that there was an agreement reached for #3 ranked Andy Ruiz to take on #1 Joseph Parker in New Zealand in December and that the winner would accept any mandatory set forth by the WBO for their first title defense. “The winner of this fight will fight anyone that the WBO decrees to fight next,” Moretti said. When asked if this included a 120-day deadline both Moretti and Lonergan said that was more than acceptable. “We are happy with that,” Lonergan said before Moretti added that a 120-day deadline for a mandatory was “no problem.” Promoter Frank Warren was agreeable as well, asking that the WBO mandate that the winner fight #4 ranked David Haye in that 120-day time frame. He also asked that Tyson Fury be considered as a mandatory after he was medically fit to return to boxing. “I’m very happy with that,” Lonergan added when asked about a mandatory defense against Tyson Fury upon his return. The WBO Championship Committee voted unanimously to approve Ruiz and Parker for the vacant WBO heavyweight title, ending speculation as to the status of the vacant heavyweight title.

Certainly is on my bank balance. I'd think 12,000 would be about right. Great location. Would fill the arena and still have some punters left over for PPV. RE: Joseph Parker - Dannyboy - 10-21-2016 Well, if you average it out at $200 per person, we are talking $2.4 million for the gate. Then $60 PPV at lets say 150,000 purchases, Duco will take half and half goes to Sky TV. That's another $4.5 million. So that's around $7 million. Is that enough to put on a World Title fight? RE: Joseph Parker - Msreef - 10-21-2016 Plus sponsorships, plus overseas television deals. They will have plenty of money. RE: Joseph Parker - Infern0 - 10-21-2016 I would strongly encourage team parker to do what they can to avoid that Haye fight if he beats Ruiz, it's hard to picture a worse style match up for parker RE: Joseph Parker - Msreef - 10-21-2016 (10-21-2016, 12:32 PM)Infern0 Wrote: I would strongly encourage team parker to do what they can to avoid that Haye fight if he beats Ruiz, it's hard to picture a worse style match up for parker Hopefully he will choose to fight Joshua/Fury/Wlad/Bellew for much more money than a Parker fight. RE: Joseph Parker - NakiFan - 10-21-2016 Just listened to Radio Sport. Sir Bob Jones is having another go towards at the Duco team (including Parker). Trying to down play the current situation within the HW division, downplaying where Parker and the team have the opportunity to do for the first time in NZ. http://www.newshub.co.nz/sport/video-sir-bob-jones-doubts-joseph-parker-will-get-world-title-shot-2016101518 "It's Joseph that calls the shots, not Duco....he is hard headed about it....he just wants the money, etc etc" He went on saying that this fight wouldn't be even in the top 100 of boxing fights staged in NZ. |
