All they have to do is tamper with his water and he is finished
Nothing feels trustworthy with these guys - literally nothing
That is a very good point Kiwi....
I'd be looking elsewhere to train.

I originally thought he'd be training at Haye's gym the whole camp, with Haye providing facilities and sparring partners. But it's only for two weeks at the end of camp. What's the point? I'm guessing Haye is on the up and up, but doubt those around Hughie are.

Haye is a snake. I seriously hope team Parker reconsiders training there, or having much to do with Haye leading up to the fight.

You mean he was setting Parker up to use and abuse him, or he was authentic in his offer? I know he used to be a snake, but I thought he changed after he fought Klit.

Ticket sales for Parker - Fury are piss poor at the minute. Not sold out tier one yet according to the seating plan and tier 2 hasn't even opened. Can only be about 2k sold so far. Hopefully they announce a decent undercard and sales pick up. If not, I think it could be about 6-8k in a 20k arena which is ridiculous. Real possibility of the whole card getting pulled. Warren has a history of pulling poor selling cards.
Is Frank Warren involved or is it Mick Hennessy running the whole thing? I would have thought that if Frank Warren ran the show that he would involve Billy Joe Saunders and Terry Flanagan on the same card although Flanagan is carrying an injury at the moment.
Fat Mick is taking the lead on the promotion but Fury has a tv deal with boxnation, which is Frank's, and Frank is fronting all the money. Saunders is already fighting Willie Monroe on 19th Sept and Flanagan has an injury as you said. Plus if he's fit, he's likely to fight Verdejo which will probably headline another card. Tyson Fury has retired (again) so I doubt he'll be on the card. So that's basically all of Frank's top level stable unavailable. They should have done this in NZ. At least Parker has a following there. Neither have a following in the UK.

Arum and US fighters won't offer much if they are on the card, as they won't draw. What do you guys think would make the promotion stronger? And plausible?

Tyson Fury being on the schedule would almost immediately sell it out imo but unfortunately I don't think that will happen.

I don't think there is much else other than shove it down peoples throats on social media. Saunders, Flanagan, Tyson, Smith v Williams 2 and Anthony Yarde are all unavailable or fighting on another date.
