Comments Thread For: Parker's Promoter Aims To Win Bid, Bring Fury To New Zealand

[Karoriori]

Forget the fact that Pedvetkin failed his test he was the #2. HW in the world - forget the fact that Stiverne was a legit champion and highly ranked in the top of the charts when Wilder beat him...I mean if these guys keep ducking Wilder by failing drug test or taking other fights like : Tyson Fury had the chance to face Wilder for his first defense or Glazkov who was top five when he passed on his shot for Wilders WBC title for what was perceived as a easy fight vs. Prince Charles Martin for the IBF...then I don't know what else to tell you and I got plenty more examples but I doubt you know whats really going on or even care about being fair.

You're doing all sorts of mental gymnastics to justify Wilders record. Parker and Joshua young guns handful of fights only been round a few years are making Wilder look very silly. Has Wilder fought the best opposition? perhaps he has Stiverne he's decent personally think Takam is better. 38 who beats Parker or Joshua out of those names? Or even a close fight i think Parker is the least talented champ but schools anyone on Wilders resume

I provided facts that you ignore to suit your agenda! This thread is not about Wilder but last thing I will tell you is this : Joshua and Parker would not be where they are today if it wasnt for Tyson Fury! none of them beat him for those titles! but Deontay was never handed anything, he paid his dues and worked his way the old fashion way without drugs or any politics behind close doors to help his career! hater.

Fury's father and trainer will be unable to enter NZ I expect they'll withdraw when Duco win the bid.

How did Stiverne win the title before Wilder beat him?

Where you going with this? Stiverne was ranked #3 in the world vs. Chris Arreola who was as high as #6. that year , two top ten HW's fighting for a vacant title - Stiverne had to fight the guy twice to win the belt -- the hard way like Deontay Wilder.

Actually Stiverne was the WBC #1 after beating Ray Austin & Arreola in eliminators. Arreola then beat Seth Mitchell in an eliminator to be moved back to the #2 spot with Wilder as the #3. When Vitali retired the top 2 guys faced each other for the vacant belt which was Stiverne & Arreola to do battle in a rematch & the WBC named Wilder the mandatory for the winner. Stiverne could of did a voluntary before Wilder but his team & the boxing world figured Wilder would be easy pickings...

David Higgins of Duco Events, who promote WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker, is ready for a battle of checkbooks when he travels to Puerto Rico next week to take part in the WBO's official purse bid for the mandatory defense against Hughie Fury.

Interesting and it only provides more clarity on the situation. I was going by the Ringmagazine ratings btw.

You didn't provide anything. Deontay handed a title he's the biggest joke in heavyweight boxing and Parker worked his way up to #1 in two sanctioning bodies so your argument that Wilder the only one to work his way up in the rankings is ridiculous. Wilder biggest dodger in boxing history. 38 fights smh
