Happy for Zhang finally getting a share of that Saudi oil money pot. Good to see Parker not avoiding these types of fights as well.

Great matchup!!

Kudos to both of them - esp Parker.

Saudis money is making waves

Now I want to see Bakole and Anderson on board that Saudi gravy train

I’m undecided right now but Parker has real problems with big lugs who just want to survive,Wilder at 213 don’t count ,Zhangs a hefty 280 and if he boxes in spots could be a huge problem ? If Parker can make him work as soon as the bell rings he’s got a better chance you gotta make a guy like Zhang slow down and he’s very fast himself the on,y other way is to hit him hard continuously drain the stamina from him yourself but Parker isn’t that fighter I don’t think ?

Nice to see both these guys earning some of that Saudi money. I hope Zhang gets a title shot soon after.

I wonder if Wilder will also be fighting on that date

Can Shifu Lee devise a game plan that targets the Big ****s body from the get go ?

Can Shifu Lee devise a game plan that targets the Big ****s body from the get go ?

Of course he can and I advise it .

[pollywog]

Of course he can and I advise it .

Then Parker can stick to it.

Seems Lee is the Oilskin Whisperer that Kevin Barry wasn't.

I trust Lee can make in game adjustments to Parker on the fly and adapt whereas Parker under Barry's tutelage was fairly limited and one dimensional, incapable of adopting a different game plan before, after or during a fight.

Parker's gonna need more than a few wrinkles to iron out Zhang.

I still think Zhangs gonna go out with a **** and won't last the distance.

It's on youtube... Zhang's trainer Shaun George said the Saudi's offered the Zhang fight to Wilder FIRST! They signed their end & were waiting for Wilder to put his pen to the contract. Well a couple days later it's Zhang/Parker so that should tell us all exactly how much Wilder wanted to fight Zhang. He is so delusional he thinks he should still be first in line for that Joshua cash out. Wilder had his chance to get right back on the horse & in the mix but he chose to decline this fight.

I'm going to on a limb. If Fury and Usyk have 2 fights, the Saudis will pay for AJ vs Zhang. They aren't interested in the other guy.
