Molina v Adamek on April 2 so that rules both of them out.

Running out of names for Parker here...

Hmmm

Ustinov? Chambers? Hammer?

Looks like it's nearly agreed that Ustinov will face the winner of Ortiz vs Dimitrenko

[diehard]

Looks like, from the article, that Dimitrenko is out. But I counted 7 fighters, not 8. Who will Fres be fighting?

[Boxingfan25]

I hope its not Hammer who Parker ends up fighting. Hammer is terrible JP will demolish him.

[Kiwi]

Hammer would be perfect

Ranked 23 in the world on Boxrec

Oquendo fights the winner of Browne - Chagaev.Winner of Oquendo - Browne/Chagaev moves onto the final.

Right, but why does Oquendo get a pass in the first round? Sounds like he has one less fight to win to be champ. He has an exalted position, and he's not even one of the three champs in the WBA.

Hammer could be likely...fills what the Duco camp have been saying about rankings. But, would he be durable, AND create some questions of Parker?.....highly doubt it.
Even a 2 round demolition job still wouldn't register much amongst the casual fan, as Hammer really doesn't have a name.
