Geez you're harsh on Parker haha. He's just had back to back 12 rounders haha.
Well, if he got them outta there early...
Well Chisora has only ever been stopped early(ish) once in his 43 fight career, and Fa has the skills to spoil and survive, and no-one at the top of the HW division would fight for a 3rd time in 5 months especially after back to back 12 rounders. Parker's managed to get himself back in contention again and is heading in the right direction with a new trainer which should have happened about 3 years ago but never mind.

Looks like they are stacking the Furey v Wilder 3 undercard with HW matchups to make in enticing, there was a risk only casuals would be interested after fight 2 but this card could save the day.

Shaw: Gallen shouldn’t be in ring with Huni
By Ray Wheatley – World of Boxing
Australian heavyweight champion Justis Huni (4-0, 3 KOs) will be in action against Rugby League legend Paul Gallen (11-0-1, 6 KOs) on June 16 at the ICC Exhibition Centre, Sydney, New South Wales and according to Gallen’s own trainer Graham Shaw, his charge should not be in the ring with Huni.
“Let’s be honest, at 39, a former rugby league player has no business in a boxing ring with a 22-year-old they’re calling ‘the next big thing.’ He shouldn’t be in there.”
“But Paul isn’t an ordinary person, he’s not a normal athlete and he doesn’t care what anyone says!”
“I felt very comfortable he would win the Lucas Browne fight. This time it is a bit of the unknown because nobody can be sure how good Huni is just yet, but if his sparring is anything to go by, Paul will go to another level again.”
