The way I understand it, the only way the IBF will allow an exemption for Joshua to avoid his mandatory (Parker), is if both Joshua and his opponent (which we assume will be Wlad) sign a contract that their next fight will be Parker. I don't think this can be reneged on even if Parker holds a belt.

So in potentially 2 successful fights...Parker could be a 3 belt Champion. How friggn exciting is that prospect?

Doesn't matter. AJ still has to defend his belt against a mandatory. Problem comes in if Klit wins and either retires or has a year before HE has to fight his mandatory.

Deontay Wilder: I Don’t Want Tyson Fury to Die…Coke Problem’s No Joke

They’ve trashed each other for YEARS — but boxing superstar Deontay Wilder is putting his feud with Tyson Fury on hold … saying he truly wants Fury to get help for his cocaine problem so he doesn’t die. TMZ Sports spoke with Wilder — who tells us the “real” Tyson Fury is not the monster you see in the media … “He really is a good dude.”

Wilder says he was really impacted when he learned about Fury’s drug problem and suicidal thoughts — and says he’s even willing to fly to England to lend his support to his embattled rival.

That being said, Wilder still wants to beat the hell out of him … saying, “We didn’t promote [a possible fight] this many years to be beat behind some kind of drug activity.”

In the past, Fury has threatened to sexually assault Wilder. Wilder said he was going to baptize Fury with his fists.

Saw the Whyte vs Lewison fight last nite on SKY. Can't believe that AJ struggled with Whyte, who had injured his shoulder. Yes, Lewison was durable, but man, Klit will definitely knock out AJ.
