The likelihood of WBO number one challenger Oleksandr Usyk and former champion, WBO #2 Jo Parker meeting for the vacant title anytime soon is very slim according to the New Zealander’s trainer Kevin Barry.. The realistic scenario according to Barry is that Usyk will play the waiting game on the hopes that Anthony Joshua takes care of Kubrat Pulev in the summer, setting up a lucrative fight for the remainder of the marbles.. Usyk dipped his toe into the heavyweight division in October, stopping token sacrifice Chazz Witherspoon in Chicago.. Parker himself hasn’t boxed in 7 months since boxing a similar offering in Alex Leapei in June.. Joseph has an appearance scheduled for February 29th at The Ford centre at the Star in Frisco.
