Parker moves up one position in the March updates, his rise coming on the back of his ruthless knockout win over American Jason Pettaway earlier this month.
Parker’s No. 10 ranking with the WBA remains stable. The challenge for Parker’s handlers is to get him a presence on the rankings of the other two major organisations, the IBF and the WBC.
It’s understood promoters Duco Events are trying to tie down a fight with American Eric Molina who has a valuable No 12 ranking with the WBC.
Importantly, that’s the one organisation not dominated by Wladimir Klitschko with American Deontay Wilder holding the WBC belt.
Beating the respected Molina would certainly rocket Parker into the WBC rankings.
