Joseph Parker

[diehard]

True Dannyboy. The fight is happening, so why not keep training as though he'll be fighting Chisora. If something unexpected happens, like a contractual problem, he gets another opponent.

Mr Higgins wants a fight in NZ for Parker? That ship has sailed.

True Dannyboy, I be thinkin this is a leadup to another Flores type opponent in nz.. terrible spectrum in my book. Why the easy options??

[mippy]

aren't the first few weeks in camp more about conditioning anyway?

[bart]

Kinda agree with Higgins statements here, although I think if Del has been training for 3 weeks already what is JP excuse for not training?
Surely he has been doing condition/strength etc

[craigyid14]

It seems if though Parker hasn't got the stomach for it anymore, sometimes defeats make fighters stronger but it seems to have had the opposite effect on JP.

[bart]

Dunno about that just yet craigyid14 but something to look out 4

[craigyid14]

Seems to have got very comfortable doing nothing inbetween fights.

[shamrock]

Can hear you Craigyid, can feel it..

Parker pulls out of Chisora fight
Joseph Parker pulls out of proposed bout against Dereck Chisora

Headlines ay, at least the herald said proposed. How do you pull out of a fight that was never signed. Feels like we've only got Higgins side of the story. Bet they asked for too much money
