Assuming Boris is genuine of course.

Parliament said 'no' to the deal put forward by May. The EU liked the deal (no surprise there) and have stated they will not renegotiate further on that one.

Any new deal offered to the EU would have to be better than the deal May came up with, or presumably Parliament would say No again.
The EU would, quite likely, be somewhat reluctant to agree terms that were less favourable to them than the previous deal was.

Everybody and his dog can come up with a deal, getting all parties to agree with it is an entirely different matter, and that includes 'no deal' too.

No deal is, and always has been, the default option if nothing can be settled within a certain time frame . . . which has already passed, and will pass again.
