Joseph Parker

[diehard]

Gotta disagree, Danny. Respectfully of course. Duco is in the fast lane, and won't wait around for a title shot, unless it's all set up for 2017. Way I see it play out is that Parker faces a top 20 guy in CC in April. They've already said a top 20 guy, so my guess is that the guy has already agreed. I remember Stu saying that he's negotiating a contract a month ago. Then, they hit up the WBO or IBF for an answer to who Parker would need to fight to warrant an eliminator or mandatory. Assuming he wins in April, and that fight in July, he plays a waiting game with the WBO or IBF champ to give him his chance as THE eliminator or mandatory. Now, that could easily go into 2017 for a title fight for Parker.

Danny, please tell KB to get a plastic or wiffle ball bat to hit Parker every time he lowers his right hand when he throws combos and squares up. Bergman caught him three times with solid punches when he did that, and an Ortiz, Martin, or Fury will KO him with a solid shot. Or Wilder with a left hook. Believe Roach does this with Pacman.

I don't think KB or Duco think that Parker is green. They say they can beat Fury or Klit right now, and said the same about Martin. And AJ is running scared. Sure, it's hype, but would they actually fight one of them. I think they'd take the fight if it was offered.

Possible scenario: Klit KO's Fury and retires, leaving two belts unattended.
