So the fighter is Romania's Razvan Cojanu.
That's crap. Should have been Breazeale. Anyway, Fury deserves the blame, not Team Parker.

Have we ever considered the unprofitability to duco of holding the fight in nz. There is some talk of Higgins and Lonergan having major disagreements.
Also, as predicted parkers replacement fighter is no less than nbr 15 on the list, yes, the Romanian.

I have wondered why we haven't seen Lonergan at all lately. He seems to have dropped off the face of the Parker planet.

There is a fight happening in Brisbane also that might be taking up resources.

No ringside seat for me and seeking TV for the night. We all know the outcome AGAIN.!

Awful opponent but it's better than nothing considering the situation. Kevin Barry's son stated that Breazeale wanted the fight in September so that effectively ruled him out.

Parker KO round 3

That assumes he spends rounds one and two warming up.

Article said that Breazeale priced himself out, and he wasn't match fit.

I'm ok with Cojanu. Probably not as good as Hughie but he's big and ranked #14.

Admittedly, not a good resume:

No way near as good as Hughie. Should be a very easy fight for Parker. At least we have Wlad vs AJ this weekend to enjoy.

Parker at the TAB would be about $1.01 probably
