maybe duco needed more time to get some money?
If they can't afford it then lose the purse bid, they shouldn't be allowed extra scrounging time.
It's time to take the show on the road and JOE gets paid more that way although Duco won't be able to line their greedy pockets by charging the nz public to see an undercard featuring Butterbean.
But in reality it's more likely that both parties are nearing an agreement and asking for time to iron out details.
By the way if this fight does go to the uk and Duco dont get to promote it, prepare for an OUTRAGEOUS ppv price for this one.
Heard on Radio Sport the announcement will be Saturday morning NZ time.
Good work again team Duco. Looking forward to seeing this fight
Well done to Parkers team for winning the purse bid and keeping control .
That will rankle the haters.
It was the extra 11 dollars! that did it
Yes decidedly well done Duco Going bust on this one..
They have done very well getting this fight in little old nz, a great move for the Parker team and exactly how I would want it being my own boy there.
Funny how with Jnr Fa in the forthcoming mix nz has a mad scramble for H/W world boxing honors unrivalled, boxing life has become intrigued beyond belief and now that Parker is fighting the top up and comers it has become exciting like nothing before seen. However, one day it will go offshore but by that time the now experience providing the wins triumph the losses might prevail the team to greatness.
In my estimation, Jnr Fa has the goods to be a very challenging commodity in the next two years.
