    Good blow out for him. But really highlights how ridiculous a Bridgerweight division in as Usyk qualifies for it yet reigns as undisputed heavyweight champion . But hey, ridiculous has never stopped the wbc has it .

    If there was money at the weight smaller heavyweights could fight there such as Parker. It could be interesting for up and coming heavyweights like Okolie

    If good fighters fight each other then I'm fine with extra divisions but Usyk destroyed the myth that these guys are too big.

    Usyk is exceptional, special, unique and once in a generation.

    Parker has also just beaten 2 big punching super-heavyweights.

    Wilder wighed less than Parker.

    Parker barely beat Zhang.

    Wilder did weigh less than Parker. He is a big puncher and listed as 6'7.

    Parker did better against Zhang than Joyce did and I'd pick him to win a rematch with Joyce. Parker also defeated Zhang clearer than Hrgovic did.

    So basically it'll be a consolation division. But do you really think Parker is small and cannot compete at legit heavy? Just don't see a need for added stops as Cruiser has worked just fine for that all along. Boxing already tried the jr hvy/spr cruiser nonsense in the 90's and I think it consisted of maybe 2,3 fights and a tin belt that is collecting dust in some pawn shop right now. Okolie is 6'5 with a division on the verge of parting open. No time to waste away years being looked at as secondary to cruiser tbh. Plenty of decent lighter hvy fights he can take to climb all ranks and not just be isolated to the wbc experiment league.

    Parker is more than capable of competing at heavy. Master is still fixated with size, even after all these years and Usyk showing one by one that it can be overcome.

    I mean Parkers a pretty big dude is all. And recent results have to account for something.
