This is the best fight that can be made at heavy right now. Parker deserves his shot.

I would walk away if I was Usyk. Other than banking more massive paychecks, there is nothing left to do in the sport. I feel like he's right where Lomachenko was right before retirement. Loma left on a win which was nice, yet there were so many callouts that could still happen. All the "next" gen fighters waiting.

Yes, some think Parker can win and will win, as Parker is very experienced in the division in form of life. People who aren't Usyk fans will dismiss Parker as being a great win.? But trust me, it is a great win for a 38 year old who was a former cruiserweight

Call me nobody then, cos I'm saying Parker will beat Usyk. Yep...I said it !!!

He should. Parker has so much experience in the division and is the best he's ever been. Now nobody is saying Parker is going to win but if usyk wins it's a very good win.
