Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker Vows To Make a Big Statement, Send a Message

After tonight if Parker doesn't respond to Wilder's call out it's a duck. But if Wilder fights Stiverne next it's a also duck as he claimed to want Parker in July.

If either of them fight Bellew next instead of each other, it's also a duck. But it's a duck that makes a helluva lot of business sense as it's an easy fight for a good payday and also potentially sets up a Joshua fight. So that would be a duck, but an understandable duck.

Wilder straight called out Parker and Parked said no, instead he is fighting some guy they found sleeping on a park bench. I get AJ wanting easier fights for big money for a little while, but Parker has no excuse. Wilder called out Parker and Parker signed to fight some bum! literally! Say what you want, but that is the definition of ducking. It is sad.

Parker was booked in for that date they were already securing a replacement. Do you really think Wilder was going to fly to New Zealand to fight Parker in two weeks? Seriously you Wilder fans need to pull your heads in. Parker's mandatory pulled out two weeks ago it's nothing more than a last minute replacement. Wilder casuals have been awful since the great fight between AJ and Wlad. Got some inferiority complex

Parkers doing what I said Indongo should. Take his belt, fight an opponent at home or in front of your desired crowd, then prepare for big fight once the world sees u spark out a mandatory. Not mad esp after he barely won the vacant belt to become champ.

So Parker was busing in a replacement instead of waiting and fighting Wilder next? Say what you want, the fact is Parker did not have an opponent and any one who had bought a ticket could refund it as a guy sleeping on a park bench is not Hughie Fury. Instead of waiting a month and fighting Wilder, he decided to bus in a guy who was literally sleeping in the park! Wilder, let's do this. Parker: No, I'm scheduled and instead of rescheduling to fight a unification, I'm going to fight some guy who isn't even a professional boxer. That's all there is to it. Wilder called him out, Parker has been silent. Why not, at least acknowledge Wilder and say okay, but let me win this gimme first? Instead he fights a bum and then talks about AJ and everything besides Wilder.

Parker has basically said no already. Wilder wants Parker but Parker wants tomato cans until he can get a fight with AJ.

This is not true at all.

If you've heard any of the radio interviews here in NZ he's consistently mentioning Wilder.

[Kigali]

Oh yeah, remind us how that went again?

If I recall, it went a hell of a lot better for AJ than it did for ol' chicken legs.

And a Wilder fan talking about resumes.... you couldn't make this **** up....

AJ fought Wilder's leftovers

His best win is a 41 y/o Vlad coming off a LOSS and a LONG LAYOFF.

He got off the floor to stop Vlad....big deal...Lamon Brewster did that to a PRIME Vlad.

An interview in HZ that nobody will likely hear.

That's like talking behind Wilder's back.

Parker has not said no.

He hasn't said yes either.
