UK boxing news round up.

This is purely my opinion, no source or anything but I think Whyte-Parker 2 is definitely likely now Parker has signed with Boxxer/Sky. Parker isn’t a draw by himself over here, they’ve obviously signed him with something lined up. I doubt they’d do the Hughie rematch so it has to be Whyte in my opinion who’s currently a promotional free agent and has previously held talks with Shalom and Sky about remaining on the platform.Comment

Rumours Joyce’s opponent July 2nd will be Christian Hammer. Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s someone even less credible though so don’t get your hopes up.Comment

Expecting the Fury vs Hunter fight to be pushed back. Apparently Hughie has an “illness”, could also be a result of poor ticket sales if you’re a skeptic. Unsure what this means for Ben Whittaker’s pro debut. Will probably get pushed back too.Comment

Yeah, I was wondering about Whitaker when I saw the news, any word on if that's still going ahead or not?Comment

I think the new plan is Shields vs Marshall and Fury vs Hunter as a doubleheader. I’m guessing they hold off Whittaker’s pro debut for that card too.Comment

Think the whole event has been cancelled unfortunately from Boxxer/Sky’s side. I think it’s likely the Hatton-Barrera exhibition doesn’t go ahead either.

Wasserman’s next card is planned for July in Newcastle. Josh Kelly will headline. Good chance Gorman is kept busy too. Hopefully it’s a lot deeper than the Liverpool card last night which was terrible IMO.Comment
