    True, usyk best these 2 already. That's why I think ddd/Josh need to defend belt against zhang first to show me they deserve usyk rematch

      I doubt very much, despite IBF plans, that the winner even gets a rematch. Nice selling point but why would it even happen?

        DDD and Josh are good and its a competitive matchup. Whoever wins this fight, should then give Zhang a opportunity, to see if they really are the best qualified to fight usyk/fury winner.
        I say zhang, rather than parker, as Zhang has waited longest
        Parker beat Zhang & Wilder. He is ahead of Zhang. Zhang also lost to Htgovic

          What I don't like is Parker Kabayel & Dubois have all been fighting contenders, meanwhile Ajs boxed cans yet he gets the title shot for soft touch fight against Wallin?
          Personally I hope the winner of what should be Undesputed 2 splits the belts....
          If Usyk who beat both cannot defend his undesputed title then why on earth should the 2 loosers get to fight for it?

          Is they're a rematchroom clause?

            Yeh, but Parker already lost to josh and joyce, and Zhang best joyce, and lost a bunch of fights too before parker beat zhang. I doubt Zhang needed to give Parker fight.
            Zhang not got much time left and has waited longest.

                The dude who got knocked into oblivion by Joe Joyce and spanked onto his arse constantly by some guy who threw was tired because he threw 3 punches in 12 rounds?

                OK.

                  Zhang beat the crap out of Joseph.

                  Let's face it, the ONLY reason Parker got the decision was because Zhang was out of shape and didn't throw. When he did it was SCARY how easy he brutalised Joseph.

                  Then he goes away and knocks Wilder in oblivion too.

                  No one would bet Parker in a rematch (besides the spammer on this forum).

                    Yes, I'm sure Saudis would prefer Josh v zhang, rather than parker v josh

                      Yup. Way more exciting fight.
