Banks doesn't know what he's talking about. Firstly, AJ is the cash cow, not Klit. Secondly, as long as Parker is the champ, he can remain in NZ and fight as long as he wants. If guys want to take the title from him, they HAVE to come to NZ. Unification? Different story.
They have to come to nz or win the purse bid

Shams right though we could only just outbid Hughie Fury. If Jospehs ever fights a Tyson, or AJ, Duco wouldn't be able to afford to do it here

That's my point. He doesn't have to fight outside NZ unless it's for a unification. He's the champ, and they come to him. Hughie was a mandatory, so that's the other exception. Hey, Sham's never right. He gets close sometimes though.

Well see if I'm right, after Fury duco are running out of options up the rankings of the other alphabets. NZ won't be considered..

You're right in the sense that Parker will fight Bellew in the UK for an easy fight with big $$$. Then it's Wilder or AJ/Klit, assuming he keeps winning, starting with Hughie.

I don't think KB is reckless enough to have Wilder AJ/KLIT in the sights in the forthcoming 18 mths. It'll go from Bellew to down the Alphabets or remain in defence of the WBO title. My 5 cents...

Well, you keep calling out guys like AJ and Wilder, you gotta deliver at some point. But look, he's gotta get past Hughie first, which will not be easy. Different fight altogether, but I think the result will resemble Takam and Ruiz.

He might Sham. I have Joe winning a close decision, but yeah, it could go the other way.

A loss may be the wake up call needed.
