Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker's Promoter Erupts, Tears Apart Anthony Joshua

[AdonisCreed]

This is going to be the same story as long as AJ holds the belts. He's the A side so he and his team are going to squeeze every dollar they can out of a fight. Joshua can make millions fighting bums so he doesn't need wilder or Parker they need him. That's the reality so these guys have to take what they can get with AJ.

that little guy is hilarious. shut up, take your money and fade back into oblivion.

joe parker will sign with Frank Warren in 2018.

Just shows how amateur and out of his depth he is as a promoter, Parker must be embarrassed

Duco are the little guy with an unknown champion. That being the case they took a swing for the fences and attempted to harass and ridicule AJ into taking the fight. Nothing wrong with that, it has been tried and worked before. However hearn and Joshua look like they aren't taking the bait and probably figure a fight with Povetkin (win he wins the WBO belt) will probably do better business.

I'm not sure what else Duco could've done. Sitting back, saying nothing and being polite probably wouldn't have got the job done either. Hearn has made them a really decent offer though and they should take it.

The rematch clause was asked for by Joshua NOT by Parker's team.

I know I would, he makes Hearn look like a master at promoting.

Rematch clause are standard these days by promoters of any A-side boxer, so how can Parker ask for a rematch clause when he isn’t the A-side. I like Team Parker openness but I don’t like the everyday tantrums by hingins.

I just made that point (the rematch) as some posters on the thread seemed to think it was parker asking for the rematch clause. I agree about Higgins, he's an idiot.

Every promoter I have ever seen is unprofessional, most of them are career criminals and scum. Lets not pretend there is a really high bar.

Then fight Wilder 50/50 split and tell Juicsha to piss off. Oh wait Parker's too much of a bum. He needs to cash out with A Juicin J.

Stress - the silent killer

Eddie is just putting on the pressure to see if Parker will give up more as the weeks roll on. He know Parkers promoter is ****ting his pants over Povetkin getting the mandatory shot and the fight being ordered. If that happens, Parker's promoter is fucked.

They're playing chicken, but Hearn can't really lose here. I'm guessing the fight gets announced next week, 70-30 in Joshua's favor.
