this is terrible management
how can you go from fighting cab drivers to fighting world level opposition
takam is underrated, tough as nails, powerful with solid fundamentals.
I hope they have at least a tune up for takam.

Boxrec have it down for the week after Joshua-Martin. They've been wrong before though, but seems like they're at least going to be having negotiations if the IBF really email them to say that.

Good fight....

Parker looks legit, but I don't want Parker vs Joshua this soon. Those two need to establish themselves as elite-level before they fight.

Apparently this is gonna go down in May, not April

whats happening to the scheduled parker fight next month? scrapped?

That's a great matchup! Tough fight for both guys. Takam is a tough cookie. That's a big step up for Parker but the time has come to start moving up much like Martin & Joshua. We will see if Parker is a contender or pretender.

Yup, neither Takam or Parker are allowed any fights or tune-ups before this one.

And winner of this has to take on winner of Joshua-Martin before Feb 2017.

hmm, as a huge parker fan, i do not like this at all.

takam is no joke, fighting can's and stepping up to world level while he's still a prospect? wtf ?
