    Which means they are next in the rotation. You said I was lying and that the IBF was next. Now you say the WBO is next. Eventually we will see who is next.

    If the WBA ends up being next, you will apologize. Yes or no? If yes, I will leave forever if the WBA isn't next. Very simple. Stop trying to make it more complicated.

      No one is interested in the eliminator because:

      1) It a dangerous fight
      2) It doesn't pay much
      3) It's a title shot that wont be happening until 2023 at the earliest
      4) It's just as likely to be for a vacant title as it is a monster payday

      What happens if, by chance, you win? Sit out until the title shot? Which may come against a Joshua or Fury for insane money, or may come against a really difficult contender for little money for the vacant belt?

      Not too attractive. The name contenders in the UK and America will all pass.

      The only people interested in taking this fight are those with zero opportunity/paydays on the horizon. My money is on Agit Kabayel or mayybbee Zhang taking it.

        he knows the crack, he has to fight in meaningful fights rather than be viewed as a passenger. he said he wants the joyce fight after chisora ie his point being that he is looking up not sideways. that's been the big criticism of him in the past few yrs, he's seen as a mere passenger who isn't looking to tread on any toes.

              That’s Tyson Businessman Fury and Joseph The Peddler Parker .

                What is Parker`s plan anyway? Fighting Joyce in Uk? But what if Joyce rejects that?

                  Parker is bigger name, but Hrgovic is more relevant.

                  Hrgovic will get IBF world title shot sooner or later.

                  What will Parker do if Joyce rejects the fight with him?

                    I was randomly following a guy on the street when some things fell out of his trouser pocket.

                    I picked them up and tapped the guy on the shoulder. He turned around and it was Joseph Parker.

                    I said ' Uce I think you dropped these' and handed them back.

                    They were his nutz...
