Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker vs. Lucas Browne in Serious Talks, Deal Looms

[Randall Cunning]

If Parker fights Browne (**** fight), who does that leave AJ to dodge Wilder with? Do they wait for the Haye v. Bellew outcome?

Just means Joshua/Parker will be in the summer. Joshuas will fight Miller in feb/mar

[NEETzsche]

who wants to see this??

Quite a few people in Australasia I imagine. It's a solid voluntary. He'll have to face Joshua, Wilder or Povetkin soon anyway

Parker is soo bad Charles Martin would look like Floyd against him

Do you really believe that ?

Whyte, Parker is being lowballed intentionally to make the fight the only viable option. AJ vs Whyte again in Febuary. Hearn really ought to consider offering Parker more money as Ryabinsky won't hesitate to make a huge offer to Parker before the mandatory is enforced, he's made it clear before he's open to making a loss for the big fights.

Another heavyweight title fight that absolutely nobody wants.

I disagree. At least there will be strong local interest. In the case of wilder and stiverne absolutely no one at all wanted to watch that again

I'd watch Parker v Browne. I think Parker wins this one.
I think they've both got better CV's than Wilder.
I've got to say, I expected Parker to be AJ's next fight. Followed by Fury in the summer, then Wilder back end of 2018. Interesting to see who's next now.

Parker for me need to face AJ nexy

So are you finally willing to admit that this is all some b.s. It's time to stop the shenanigans. A loss doesn't kill a guy's career, especially at HW.

We need Parker, Wilder, and Joshua all in the same ring over the next 12 months, w/ Fury hopefully in the mix the next 12. I don't understand how anybody could logically want anything else.

All those other HWs are shot or below average with size.

Apparently somebody did. They had a crowd of 10k people with UFC right up the street at MSG.

That's a healthy to good boxing audience in a US arena. The live gate was probably between 750k - 1.2 million
