Tyson Fury celebrating his win over Deontay Wilder in 2020
And Fury was met with much fanfare of his own and even bumped into a super-supporter so loyal he has the heavyweight inked on him.
The British superstar grinned and pointed to the fans’ tattoo, which portrays Fury celebrating his 2020 win over Deontay Wilder.
Parker, 31, faces Faiga Opel, 29, in Melbourne tomorrow night and will have the backing of Fury, who made the near 11,000 mile trip over.
And his arrival brought the shock revelation that he could be in line to fight Aussie heavyweight Demsey McKean.
McKean’s manager Angelo Di Carlo told The Herald Sun: “Chats began some time ago for Demsey to fight Tyson Fury in Australia and I think Demsey is the best option for the Gypsy King.
“We’re certainly keen to do the fight. We’ve had a good association with Matchroom and we have great respect for Eddie Hearn, but I’ll have more talks with Fury’s camp and see where that takes us.
“If Tyson Fury wants to fight in Australia, the logical option is to fight an Aussie fighter and talking to Fury’s people, they don’t want to fight a small heavyweight.
“We’ve been given a possible date to fight Fury in August, so hopefully we can make it happen.”

McKean, 32, is signed to Hearn’s Matchroom banner and is currently 22-0 with 14 knockouts.
And he was hired as Anthony Joshua’s sparring before before the Brit’s loss to Oleksandr Usyk, 36, in September 2021.
McKean was also considered as an opponent for Joshua, 33, this year before Jermaine Franklin, 29, was ultimately selected.
But the Aussie could get his shot at the big time against Fury, who has not returned since beating Derek Chisora, 39, in December.
He was in talks for the heavyweight division’s first four-belt undisputed decider against Usyk this year.
But the deal broke down amid a row over the potential split for a rematch between the two.
So Fury, 34, was looking to come back in the summer at Wembley but found very little available opponents available.
It led the two-time unbeaten champion to name Australia as a potential host for his very next bout.
Fury said: “I’m definitely keen, it may even be my next fight, over here. I just haven’t got an opponent yet, so we’re going to figure it out.
“Over the next few days we’re going to be travelling around to a few different states and looking at some potential venues for my next fight.
“Australians are always crazy boxing fans, so it would be great to get the Gypsy King Down Under.”
