    Not entirely sure which American or American-based fighter would be a realistic option: Wilder not going to fight him coming off of two stoppage losses, he already fought Ruiz, Ortiz is looking for something bigger and Jared Anderson not ready for that jump in competition.

      He'll get paid to be a top flight gatekeeper by an American promoter

        Are they saying matchroom cut him now that they have no one left to prop him up? Whyte is off to Fury and Chisora is off to Wilder. They wouldn't give him Dave Allen. Where does he go? Maybe Kownacki or Lucas Browne.

          Wouldn't be a bad idea.
          I think he beats both of them.

            I don`t think Parker has "many options", he is just desperate for another payday.

            He should fight and beat Hrgovic, even if the money would be small.

              Bricktop should sign him.

                Lucas Browne is a shell. Kownacki probably mentally the same. I was never hyped on Parker in the first place...I think he's a heavyish handed plodder who can stink the place out without someone willing to push him. He probably needs to hook up with someone like Kalle Sauerland and get in the euro mix...maybe fight someone like Tom Schwarz.

                    Sauerland is a shell of the promoter he once was. No major TV deal these days. They don’t pay opponents enough. They can’t get Hrgovic any decent opponent because they simply don’t offer enough money. Just look at the IBF winning purse bid for Hrgovic/Hunter. It was like 350000 euro. Hunter got paid twice that to fight a stiff in a WBA elimibator. Sauerland is not the promoter to sign with. Parker will have options all over…
