Pooseyhole......

Man, just retire. You are too kind for that sport. You don`t want to fight Hrgovic, you don`t want to fight Fury, you already lost to Joshua and Whyte, you fought Chisora twice..

There is not much left for you, nobody cares about you fighting all Fas in the world.

[JakeTheBoxer]

He turned down Hrgovic over money from the get go.

Nobody wants the peanuts Team Hrgovic is offering.

Just stop it.

But Parker had no problem fighting Winters for peanuts.

Parker is a strange man, seems there's no fight or spite in him to his own detriment. Seems like he's been castrated or something, even when Chisora was digging him there was just pure passivity from Parker. Maybe boxing is not for him.

The way Parker explains it, it seems reasonable to not want to fight him.
But then you think a bit more about it then conclude but boxers must have fought their friends before in history of sport. Wlad not fighting vitali was understandable though for obvious reasons.
Didn't David haye beat his mate up the other day?

I totally agree with you in theory, but what Haye did to his mate can never be described as "beating him up", when in reality, he stroked his face, gave him a hug, and then they held hands to watch the sunset and the judges award Haye the win.

But I'm sure Hayes mate tried decking haye. But I'm sure most boxers pretend to hate opponent to sell tickets most of time anyway

[Nash out]

This actually makes sense. They aren't just friends, they have lived together and all sorts, and let's be honest, Parker knows he can't beat Fury anyway. Once Fury becomes undisputed, he'd drop a belt so Parker can fight for it, just like he said he would for Hughie many years ago. Nash out.

[champion4ever]

Well that's understandable. They are boys. They are linked to the same trainer Andy Lee

What can I say? Unrequited love is a terrible thing! Like the black and white films where the lady slaps the leading man in the face and then he manhandles her into a kiss.

All joking aside, yeah you’re right, but I see a lot of the time that the boxer actually manages to convince themselves that they do hate the other guy

To be fair, that's what folks said about everyone else who got ducked for a while.

I've never favored ducking for money and so I won't on Fil either, but, it is the standard defense for ducking. I can't think of a name since Maskaev that it didn't apply to. If you want to duck and have a chance at not being called a duck for the ducking all you got to do is say money doe. It might work.

If you're Jack Dempsey, that's dudes whole legacy. Forgiven for ducking Greb, Norfolk, Langford, Wills, etc. because the money doe.

If you're Deontay Wilder, **** you, you ain't worth no money so it ain't no excuse.

Ortiz and Pulev didn't get favored, but, Joshua and Fury both did, and, I don't think Fury's had a fight without delay over money since his return unless you count the fights he made to delay money fights as undelayed fights but really they were just a means to delay.

Joshua hardly fights without some kind of delay, since he's been champion, always money.



Just saying, if you don't want that ready made excuse to be so prevalent maybe use an equal hand and quit kissing Tyson's ass every single time he delays for money. Or is it different when Tyson's offered peanuts? Exactly, so the excuse will always be there.
