I dont see any point in a Zhang rematch. Parker essentially won 10 of the 12 rounds. Interestingly in the post fight interviews Warren more or less dismissed the notion of a rematch with Zhang. Would there even be a gate for that fight? I really dont think the KSA would front up with the cash for it. I have always wanted Parker to have a rematch with Whyte. That was a badly referred contest. The ref allowed Whyte to foul throughout the entire match including the headbutt which put Parker on the deck. There is some payback there but not in the UK. Notice that Parker's best fights have been outside of the country. So Dillon Whyte is my pick for the next opponent.
Sounds like hes obligated to giving Zhang a rematch. I'd like to believe & hope this fight sucking so much can get us out of seeing this fight again tho.
I think with the streak of winning fights hes not supposed to be winning hes on doing a rematch with Joyce might be a compelling next fight.
DDD wouldn't be a bad option either imo.
With Fury & Usyk booked vs each other for May & probably late in 2024 or early 2025 it could make sense to make AJ vs Joe 2 too.
He deserves a rematch against AJ who was thinking of giving one to Whyte. Plus, his recent activity and quality of opposition is better than AJ's who is, of course, promised, a shot for all the titles for no logical reason.
I don't want a second Parker-Zhang fight. Parker can go with Hrgovic and Dubois. Eventually a Joyce rematch, but I doubt that he will waste time with one. He will never fight Fury because they are friends. And at this point, he has no chance of facing Usyk, otherwise it will be a nice fight. Ruiz is pointless.
