Fair call too, why should Parker sell himself short? They are both champions Joshua should want to fight the best. Parker has other options, seems Hearn has lost his pen.

He could fight me and it would sell out a stadium
Parker isnt getting a payday anywhere else.
What Parker does have is time. He doesnt need to make the fight now, he can wait it out. He knows Joshua wants all teh belts and if he has the last one and he is patient enough eventually they will have to pay him. All he needs to do is satisfy whatever BS mando the WBO throw up and he is good

In what world would WBC/WBA/IBF heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder split the pot 50/50 with a one-defense WBA Champion who's never left New Zealand for a fight and just did 6000 "buys" on YouTube?
The funniest thing about all of this is Povetkin is bearing down on Parker's neck and beats him pretty handedly, tbh.

Not saying people are scared of Pov because im a fan (I was but not anymore), but nobody will want a drug cheat as dangerous as him if they can help it.

Joshua giving Parker 30% would literally be bending over no Vaseline for nothing more than the WBO trinket (Parker doesn't bring TV and his fans don't travel).
If that's the move Duco wants to push, Joshua fights the WBA mandatory in the spring, Wilder in the summer, and/or then Hearn and Povetkin's promoter play hash out the terms for their fight.

Originally posted by ScottWeiland View PostIf you're gonna tell the story tell the whole story, Parker didnt factor into any of those sales, he took a fiat fee in escrow from Hennessy for his troubles of travelling, £1.4m, sterling not dollars. He had his own NZ ppv sales too, he didnt earn a cent from those youtube sales, Hennessy handled all that side trying to recoup his fee to Team Parker, it's widely acknowledged he made a loss none of that reflected on Parker whatsoever.
Compare that to Matchroom Sport basically offering $4m to Deontay Wilder for a fight in the UK against Dillian Whyte (with there still being money there to work with before the potential Wilder fight would turn in the red).
Joseph Parker is a money loser on the UK equivalent of $2m, yet he deserves a big stake in a full event why?

Big Australia fight with Lucas Browne, and then a likely trip to Russia for Povetkin (the WBO isn't in the CBP).
Bet on your talent, I guess.
