So where does Parker go from here?

[Scipio2009]

Simple

Sit down with his camp, assess if he still wants to fight, and build a fiefdom for himself in New Zealand, just as Hearn is trying to do with Joshua in the UK.

He's seen what his level is at, and it's clear that he doesn't Wilder or Joshua with things currently put together.

Pick off Charr, drag that belt to New Zealand, and hope that you get better

So he loses here, loses against AJ, I thought he lost the Ruiz fight.

I never watched the fury fight, but how close was it? Debatable?

No, not because of anything that Parker did though. Fury disgraced himself with zero offense. It was not close

[Kezzer]

To me he should take a few lower level fights to get a few wins back under his belt. Jennings, Browne, moline, Martin - a combination of these would be ideal. It certainly pushes him back 12 months for sure

Back to New Zealand, with a Band-aid on his ass?

May as well pack it in. He didn't look hungry to me. It's hard to get out of bed when your wearing silk pyjamas.

Fishing in his new boat.

[Tyistall]

Back to New Zealand fighting on Burger King cards hahah. Hes been overrated and he finally has been shown to be what he really is, a gatekeeper at best. He doesnt have the heart to be the best

[Rockybigblower]

Maybe a fight with Dave Allen. Or start fighting rugby players...which happens a lot in Australia and NZ.

He's still young and only just lost. In a couple of years time with a new coach he we will be way better.

He should go back to New Zealand and take one or two confidence building fights. Right now he just needs a win. Lucas Browne could be a good option. Pretty easy fight for Parker but he should be allowed. He's just come off three tough fights in enemy territory.

One of the reasons I was leaning towarda a Whyte win was because hes had a good run recently and had momentum behind him - that can play a big role mentally - would like to see Parker get some wins and build himselg back up
