Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker May Defend in Japan, Against Kyotaro Fujimoto?

[Rezz]

Parker is a one dimensional bum. Looks like he's gonna pull a Billy Joe Saunders with his belt and keep defending it against other bums.

Parker should try to make as much many as possible before cashing out against Wilder or Joshua, I even think the likes of Pulev, Whyte, and Chisora beat him easily, cause i thought both Takam and Ruiz beat him clearly

[PunchyPotorff]

Can't blame Parker's team wanting to get in a voluntary vs Fujimoto in Japan. Let em get a huge payday before they go after the real threats. And as far as Fujimoto being a bum, yes it's true to a certain extent, but full disclosure the Haumono fight was several years back when he only had a handful of fights as leadup.

If they can squeeze it in before the end of the year then it's no big deal. Joshua, Wilder, Ortiz, Haye, Bellew and probably Whyte are all tied up anyway. No harm in staying active and gathering up some more experience

[Randall Cunning]

Hasn't he already signed a deal to fight the winner of Bellew/Haye 2? Or a gentlemans agreement or some ****. May aswell do something whilst he waits.

LOL you can tell where Parker & his people are at with mentioning this cat. This cat is a level or three below the stumblebums Wilder has defended against.

I'm all for it tbh. Let Parker, Whyte, Haye, Bellew, Jennings all mess around with the WBO. Keeps them out of the way of what we all really want.

He's got a pretty decent resume now. Takam, Ruiz, Dimintrenko, Fury.

True fair enough with Parker going for low hanging fruit, but then again I kinda feel like if we are trying to maximize this Joshua vs Wilder thing we want Parker's belt in Wilder's hands so we got a Crawford (2 belts) vs Indongo (2 belts) type unification situation going on at HW to get all the unification dorks all aboard the Wilder vs Joshua unified + undisputed champion of the world hype train.

I don't see the purpose of Parker holding a title post-Wilder vs Joshua if we can avoid that being a thing. I say he's a lesser guy with a belt that we should get out of the way ASAP.

Remember his first "title" "defense" in May was against Cojanu, who had no business being called a "title challenger" and Fury was a lame mandatory, so Parker has already had his cupcake this year. On the other hand, hard to blame him if the Japanese are going to pay him big bucks to knock out their nobody
