Would need Eddie to renegotiate .
JP may well fight Del again if on the undercard of Fury v AJ as im sure the $$ will be massive in saudi
Except that JP won't make more than $200,000 for an undercard fight. He needs to talk to the WBO and see what they can do for an eliminator with the Usyk/Joyce fight. If they give him the green light, go for it if it's not too far in the future. If it isn't on, or it's too far in the future, negotiate with the WBO to fight Hrgovic.

RE: Parker/Chisora - diehard - 05-31-2021
Thanks bart. I wuz wondering whether it was going ahead or not. But 5 months away from now. Enough time to fight Hrgovic in between.
RE: Parker/Chisora - bart - 05-31-2021
nah no Hrgovic Im afraid.
Reckon JP wants some solid time with Andy Lee and another scrap with del will show whether the partnership is working or whether JP has the capability to improve.. then maybe Hrgovic for a eliminator??
Strange but a good win next over 10 times beaten Del should actually put him in the mix for a mandatory spot... which really will mean bugger all over next 2 years as the 3 big dogs fight eachother.
Unless belts get stripped of course
RE: Parker/Chisora - Kiwi - 05-31-2021
It would be no surprise to see belts stripped over the next year.
Parker could be in a good spot....

Joseph Parker: I don't have Covid
Duncan Johnstone
Joseph Parker says he is fit and healthy in Las Vegas.
New Zealand heavyweight boxer Joseph Parker has doubled down on his insistence he doesn’t have Covid.
American broadcaster ESPN linked Parker to the Covid outbreak in the Tyson Fury camp that has delayed the British star’s trilogy fight with Deontay Wilder.
Parker has been training with Fury in Las Vegas and told Stuff at the time of the report that he was “keeping healthy and safe” and that his family who are with him in Las Vegas were “all good too”.
He attended the UFC promotion where Conor McGregor was beaten by Dustin Poirier last Sunday, sparking surprise from some fight fans and a report at World Boxing News which said the “Covid-positive Parker should have been self-isolating”.
But Parker said reports around his health were incorrect.
"I found out I had Covid in the paper," Parker told Newshub, scoffing at the ESPN report.
"Before I went to the fights, I returned a negative test. Everything is all good here with me and my family."
Joseph Parker is working towards a likely rematch with Dereck Chisora later this year.
Parker continues to put up social media posts of his training sessions in the United States.
He is waiting on confirmation of his next fight, likely to be a rematch with British heavyweight Dereck Chisora after Parker’s contentious points win in their May fight in Manchester.
Meanwhile, Fury’s British promoter Frank Warren expressed disappointment and frustration at the unwanted development and said they were still working on a new date for the fight against Wilder after the postponement from the original July 24.
The two heavyweights have regularly trained together in the past.
"It's looking some time in October, which is a great shame it's been postponed, but it is what it is," Warren told BT Sport.
"Unfortunately, they in the camp and himself got tested positive for Covid. There's nothing we can do about it.
"It's the times we live in, so the fight is postponed. Pushed back.
"Very frustrating. Really frustrating for Tyson. By the time he gets into the ring, he will have been out for nearly 20 months. That's a long, long time."

Parker should take this fight instead of Chisora. Both are promoted by Hearn. And according to them, a mandatory fight against AJ:
