So Izu goes over to Poland to face Saleta or Wawrzyk, and Parker faces Szpilka. This'll give Parker more experience after facing the lefty Bergman. AND, Szpilka has only lost to Jennings.
Could be billed as a co-main event with Izu and Parker. NZ vs Poland. How good is that? Poland will try to claim Izu as a Polish fighter.
I think Szpilka is expected to be Wilders next victim in January so would drop him down to the level of Molina and Duhaupus afterwards.
From a promo POV I'd love to see Briggs, Ustinov, Brown, Chisora, Stiverne, Leapai in NZ and think JP beats them all. But as has been said, getting them to sign up is the hardest part.
It's a shame boxing doesn't have one governing body who dictates fights, similar to UFC but less exclusive.
