He won't fight Parker either.

Go on then, why won't he fight Parker?

Because Parker's dangerous, low reward and Haye hasn't fought a decent opponent in four and a half years?

Yes, but unless Hearn offers him a Joshua fight, it's his best option. If he gets that, then it'll be more like 50/50 for a Joshua unification fight.

He's lined up to fight Bellew in February, where he will earn millions. If that isn't enough for him, he'll wait around for Joshua.

Skip to 2:47 where he talks about Haye and the WBO:

I personally think Haye beats Parker, thus winning the WBO. With a world belt, he has more leverage for a unification fight, and can pretty much demand 50% of a Wembley fight end of the summer. That's the fight he wants, probably the most lucrative fight in the UK, and probably top 5 in the world.
