Well if I was parker, now that he's IBF mandatory he should be looking out for #1, and he's a big asset now.
If I was him I'd be looking at the saurlands for promotion, they can get him on big cards in Europe and they have a good relationship with hearn.
As far as trainers, not sure. Kevin Barry is OK despite how I think of him as a person, and there aren't many great heavyweight trainers out there.
Adam booth? Shane mcguigan? These guys could do well for joe .
But promotion is the main thing.
Someone on boxingscene made a point the other day that Duco are going to end up getting played off the table soon anyway in terms of joes career, once he starts fighting on big promotions overseas. I think once parker sits down with hearn at the match room offices he's going to realize that lonegran is small town and that'll be the end of that relationship.
