Joseph Parker - The Real Deal?

[Killer Blow]

Not interested, if I wanted to troll I would have said that Deontay Wilder has a chance of winning against this guy.

Wilder would 100% beat Parker if they fought right now. Quote me on that.

Wilder would 100% lose against Parker if they fought right now, Wilder is in hospital and is lucky that Arreola allowed him to walk away while being heavely injured. Probably got payed to lose, but whatever, the American crowd is easy to fool anyway. Wilder is doing it for years now already.

And when you're proven wrong you'll disappear or claim it was 'fixed'.

For me, Parker is like the new Pulev, he's good, very good in fact, but just not actually it.


His technic is similar to AJ, somehow on all the other parts he's losing. Less range, less strength, less condition, less speed, less weight.

I still like the guy somehow, a lot even, very gentle, brave, nice, fanatic, name it.

Sounds like a man-crush to me.

Although I agree, I think AJ beats Parker; I do think Parker will be his toughest test.

I think it will be an interesting fight though. Parker is really quick but open. AJ seems the real deal, but I can't stop thinking Frank Bruno. I hope I'm wrong, as I'd like to see him go on to dominant like the Klitschkos.

+1

Lol, he can't even prove me wrong, he can only prove me right in this case lol. If I predict something wrong I allways fully admit it. I expected Klitschko to win against Fury and I was wrong and I expected Joshua to KO Breazeale a lot more fast, like 3 rounds ish.

I'm a men, I only have a crush on some girls their looks, not their character. I guess you would grow your own child up in such a way that you get a crush on it, I'm not like that.

Parker is a top 6 to 15 heavyweight - a decent contender. Very good, but not elite.

He'll lose to the top 1 - 5 HWs like Joshua.

Not sure; he might be better. We will see. It would appear Pulev is next for AJ.

Looks better than aj

Rumors that Dimitrenko might be next for Parker, and I'm glad to see that he's not rushing into an AJ fight yet.

Dimitrenko was initially named as Ortiz's opponent a few months ago. I was down on that fight because I think an older guy like Ortiz should be moving faster, but I think Dimitrenko is an okay opponent for a very young HW like Parker. A fight with Dimitrenko would get him more experience against a bigger foe, and AD would probably his best opponent outside Takam. Dimitrenko is a fragile fighter, but he's got ability and can usually box well for a few rounds.

Parker has the fastest hands out of any of the top heavyweights at the moment and decent pop, though a level below that of Klitschko, Wilder and Joshua. I read someone here saying that his lack of power will cost him - I disagree - it's his lacking defense that is the real problem.

That said, he should beat Dimitrenko handily.
