The only way he gets more is for a title shot and I don't see that anytime soon
If he really believes he can beat JP he should sign the contract win and a title shot becomes a hell of a lot more realistic
Don't take the fight and lose to a no name for 25k - deductions etc and then kick yourself

markk is NOT gonna like you. He wants way more than $500,000. Wonder how much Parker will get? Probably one to two million. Fa is no more desperate for the fight than Jr. And Parker being the favourite, it should be an easy night at the office. I'm hoping Fa trains the house down, is rid of his health concerns, and pulls the upset.


RE: Joseph Parker - bart - 04-21-2020

I don't think in this current $$ climate that JP would get anywhere near 2m
I think 750ish JP 500ish Fa is more realistic and I think both parties should be happy
Our rugby stars and even politicians are taking wage cuts at present to holding out for 2m and 1m each might be reaching.
Fa is along way from any million $ payday on his performances in the ring so far, he seems a nice guy I hope his management don't let greed rob him of possibly his biggest paycheck.
Take the fight if your confident of winning- a win against JP would open many doors to opportunities to fight big and earn big.
Turn this down and its back to low level Dominick Quinn type fighters who could take your O at any time.
I'm not rubbishing Fa here I just think he should look at this as an great opportunity rather than pricing himself out and going back to fighting dustman.

You're making way too much sense, bart!

RE: Joseph Parker - mippy - 04-23-2020

To be honest, those videos are the highlights of Parkers career.


RE: Joseph Parker - bart - 04-23-2020

Ouch!!
It is keeping him in fans minds though- keeping or even enhancing his profile here and aboard. pretty cunning PR work really.
If he gets an early post Corona fight many casuals will tune in.. well played JP well played


RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 04-23-2020

Parker was on the Warriors doco at 7PM with Roger Tuivasa-Schek in an informal discussion. No new news though about his future.

He's a funny man:

Parker: If No One Wants Whyte - I'm Always Here For Rematch!

Former WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker has been calling for a rematch since his 2018 twelve round decision loss to top contender Dillian Whyte at the O2 Arena in London.

Parker was dropped twice in the bout and failed to let his hands go, but rallied in the late rounds to drop and nearly stop Whyte in the twelfth.

Whyte, who has a mandatory position under the WBC, has expressed little interest in the rematch.

At the present, Whyte is scheduled to face former WBA world champion Alexander Povetkin in July.

Parker has won three in a row since the loss, with a TKO victory over Shawndell Winters in February.

Whyte has advised Parker to direct his full focus on facing credible opponents instead of making viral dance videos on social media.

"Dillian and I have history with the fight that we had and obviously I want a rematch, and I think that's probably the reason why he's getting a bit agitated," Parker told Sky News.

"I'm calling him out and saying I can beat you. But I see it as quite funny coming from him. I don't know if he can loosen up himself, and if he can dance, and if he has moves. I just don't know. If he sees this, it's a challenge to see if he can loosen up and just relax.

"I hope [he offers me a rematch]. I'm not sure if he will, but I hope he does, because I think it will be a great fight again. I know he's trying to chase his goals and dreams of being champion of the world, but if there's no one there willing to give him that opportunity, if no one wants to fight him, I'm always here. I'm willing, I'm able and I'm ready."

This is what I'm talking about.  Now is not the time to be shy about calling out other fighters.  Sure, AJ, Fury, Wilder are locked in, but Parker calling out Whyte is the way to go, and with the virus holding things up, not reason not to get a head start now.  KB used to do this for Tua back in the day with a lot of success.  Got him the Oquendo fight when Tua's career was in jeopardy after the loss to Byrd.
