Both his loses come to guys well outside the top 50 and one was a cruiser... to be fair the cruiser was an MD loss but still.
If this is the oponent then it's pretty clear Hearn's only plans for Parker are to use him as an opponent for one of his heavies who he's a lot closer with. Hard to imagine he's looking at a pathway for Parker with these kind of fights. More like keep him winning in case someone pulls out of fighting a Whyte or someone like that and use him as a late replacement. Or through Parker at someone like a Filip Hrgovic and Matchroom take the winner seriously and dump the other.
