Comments Thread For: Joshua-Parker: Promoters Planning July Bout at Wembley

[Robbie Barrett]

So this is the thanks Deontay gets for cleaning up King-Dung ; instead of fighting Deontay Eddie Hearn says ' Thanks sucka! you thought we fight you after you beat our mandatory? haha'. Scumbag.

Wilder had a chance to get a good pay day and good UK exposure fighting Whyte, which probably would have lead to a Joshua fight sooner. He turned it down.

Hearn and AJ have said all along that they were going to fight Wilder next fall meaning fall of 2018. Now you idiots are tryin to make it seem like they never said that, when they did. Joshua is fighting Pulev who is #4, Parker who has a belt and probably one more guy in between. Wilder has fought 38 bums and Stiverne before the Ortiz fight (which he could lose in). Stop saying one guy is so much better than the other and realize that a good fight is a good fight, no matter what. It used to be that these guys didn't fight each other. Now they will but it will take a year to set it up. Also, when they do finally fight, it will be a true unification fight where one guy will come out the unified champ of the entire division. There should be no complaints...

Thats right boys go ahead and defend this charade, its not enough that Deontay is fighting his mandatory next ( top three HW ) to get that out the way but then Eddie Hearn takes advantage of the fact that hes now free to pick Parker over Deontay -- every true fan should be demanding this fight but I see Joshua fans celebrating that A.J can swerve Deontay for as long as possible.

What happened to Joshua and Wilder unifying?

His mandatory is Stiverne isn't it? Meanwhile Joshua is actually fighting his mandatory. This is all rumour. Of course they are going to look for a fight at Wembley. Joshua is a big stadium fighter now. Even the Pulev fight is in a 70k stadium.

Thats before Deontay decided to take care of Luis Ortiz so if Deontay beats his mandatory there should be no delay. Deontay has been on the record that he wants it now! but Hearn wants to cherry pick Parker and get one last good payday before he decides to face 'Bombsquad'.

I dont understand you guys, first you say Deontay should fight somebody now you are happy that Stiverne is mandatory, and thats not even certain as Stiverene is going to be fight Dominic Breazeale last time I checked.

Damn guess the Nigeria scrap won't happen. Oh well, they're still on schedule for the Wilder fight in 2018.

I don't understand you. You're claiming Wilder is fighting his mandatory next to get it out of the way, but Stiverne is his mandatory. It doesn't really matter who's first, Wilder and Parker will both fall. Parker is probably a bigger draw than Beyonce.
