Comments Thread For: Manager: Parker Would Like Ruiz Rematch, Money is Too Low For Hrgovic

[TampaBayTimmy]

Absolute RUBBISH. Beating Hrgovic gets Parker closer to a belt. The money that would follow easily makes up for whatever he feels underpaid in the IBF eliminator. The Kiwi's stock plummets.

Parker’s team have never put him in with anyone they thought was a huge risk . If Parker’s fighting someone it’s because his team are near 100% he wins . The exception is A.J but that was for big bucks .

Ruiz declined 5 million to fight Whyte no way he’s going to take the fight against someone who would really pound him around the ring .

Didn't you read he article? Ruiz got robbed in his fight with Parker.

I feel sorry for Hrgovic, but "If it ain't making dollars, then it doesn't make sense!" Make Hrgovic the direct mandatory ASAP!

This guys lying again no offer was made to him . Next they’ll use some elbow injury or something as the excuse .

Exactly! Wba should just order the mandatory and purse bid based on the splits under the rules. If the fighters don't want the fight drop them.out of the rankings. If there's no money in the fight there'll be no bids.

I see both sides honestly. I can't imagine there would be a large purse for an Hrgovic fight. I don't think he's developed a following and nobody really seems to be beating the drum and demanding him to get fights.

Other fighters and their teams don't see the risk/reward ratio being good enough to fight him. Some of that is definitely the risk of losing to the Croatian but I think the perceived value of the reward (purse and position with IBF) isn't viewed highly.

I think Hrgovic just needs to keep KOing whoever he can get in the ring and stay very busy, the more exposure he has to eyeballs on any platform will help build his brand. His team should also lobby the IBF to make him their mandatory since they've essentially exhausted their options (unless Zhang takes it).

Rubbish. Parker has one of the best resume in the business. Arguably the 2nd best resume in whole division

Anthony Joshua
Ruiz
Chisora x 2
Hughie fury
whyte
prime takam,
dimetrenko,
etc...

Ruiz fought the top guy in division, on short notice, and beat him so bad he quit.

I doubt he will have any problems with a plodding, b grader like Whyte.
