pollywog, I was responding to the rumor of Joyce/Parker 2. AJ/Parker 2 is even better imho. I'd prefer Joyce vs. Whyte.

But most of those fights are being tied to the June 1 undercard...
June 1st: Beterbiev/Bivol, Parker/Joyce 2, Wilder/Zhang, Hrgovic/Dubois, plus the 5v5 tourney would be ridiculous. Just have the 5v5 as its own card with Hrgovic/Dubois included....and add 2 more bouts to the Beterbiev/Bivol undercard. Guys like Sanchez and Kabayel need fights too.Last edited by kiaba360; 03-22-2024, 07:21 PM.

That's how it fits with the 5v5 undercard.

Source? It would be hilarious if true. Wilder goes from calling Hearn a slave-master iirc to signing a MR contract, how the tables have turned.

Of course Zhang hit harder
he actually floored Parker twice with short shots
Parker Didn’t even feel Wilders power. Yes Wilder did land
wilder only fought 1 super heavy his entire career and he’s 0-3 with 0 KOs
Zhang fought an even sturdier super heavy and KOed him both times
