Joseph Parker entered the ring last Saturday night to jump the gun and call out Oleksandr Usyk after his undisputed victory of the heavyweight championships over Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium in London.
Parker’s publicity stunt
It was a step by Joseph to place USyk (24-0, 15 COs) on the spot, in the hope that he would agree to the fight and begin the marketing process. It was the same sneaking tactics that Daniel Dubois employed, and did the same thing at Usyk last December to push him into an unnecessary re -broadcast after his victory over Tyson Fury in Riyadh.
Dubois was also allowed in the ring in that case. Fans did not want to see a re -broadcast between Oleksandr and Dubois, because the first one in 2023 told them everything they needed to know. Dubois breaks spiritually when the pressure is on.
Parker’s last three wins against 315 pounds of Martin Bakole, 41-year-old Zhilei Zhang, and faded Deontay Wilder were not significantly enough victories to increase his popularity with the box. Fans knew that the guys were fewer fighters.
Parker had to beat this kind of young talent to make him a more viable option for USyk
– Agit Kabayel
– Moses will bite
– Bakhodir Jalalov
– Lenier but
It is doubtful that Parker’s printing tactics will work for him, because it is not a marketable struggle that can be sold to the fans. Oleksandr did a favor Dubois (22-3, 21 COs) by fighting him instead of a more profitable match against Anthony Joshua or Tyson Fury. But there is no commercial reason for utility to throw a leg to Parker as well (36-3, 24 COs).
USYK’s money fire with Parker
USYK is off until his last struggle of his career before he retired. As such, if he were to fight next, he would lose millions. USyk allegedly earned $ 100 million for its re -broadcast with Fury in December last year. If he were to fight Parker, it is possible that he would not even make half the sum. A battle with Parker would be like Throw millions on a fire fire For usyk
“We have to make a plan now. I have to get into the ring and fight. I’ve been waiting for too long (5 months), ‘Joseph Parker said Pro Boxing fans About the will of a title shot next against the undisputed champion Oleksandr utility. “It was great to see how he became a two -time undisputed champion of the world. I am waiting for my event. I’m going to see if he gives it to me, and hopefully we can share the ring together and fight a big fight. ‘
