It was supposed to be July 2 Wemley Arena in London (England), local Olympic medalist Joe Joyce (13-0, 12 KOs) and New Zealand ex-world champion Joseph Parker (30-2, 21 KOs) will meet in a face-to-face confrontation. Last week, the promoter announced the postponement of the fight – there is a good reason for that.
But now it looks more like the New Zealander just changed his mind about fighting and is already looking for fallback options: White agrees to go against Parker again.
British promoter Frank Warren (queensberry promotions) too
just in case looking your fighter the coolest options. He is aiming for a fight with former WBC champion American puncher Deontay Wyder (42-2-1, 41 KOs): “How do you like this option? Wilder had some damn grueling fights with Tyson Fury. The last one is not a fight at all, but a heavyweight classic. If you’re talking about the best heavyweight fight of the last 20 years, then this fight is clearly one of the favorites. The only question is what is left of Wilder. And that he was damn dangerous and could have a good gasp, no one doubts. Even Fury will tell you that.”
Warren is very disappointed with Parker’s position and is afraid of White – he is also among the candidates for the fight with Wilder: “If Deontay has not really been spent yet, if he still has something to offer, then you are welcome. Imagine what a great fight they would have with Joyce! Agree that the Wilder vs. Joyce fight is many times cooler than the Wilder vs. White fight in terms of potential. And in general, the Wilder vs White fight is bad, if only for the reason that from the outside it looks like a fight between two losers.
White this month tried to take away the championship title from Fury, but lost by knockout, and without options. Wilder has recently been happy as an elephant: he opened his statue, after which he promised to return to the ring: photo and video. The promoter says Otto Wallin would love to fight him. Just in case, Wilder explained why he decided to return.
