Thoughts!

[davie]

Just thought I'd get in before Wes Shaw changes his AJ vs ??? thread title

[lefty]

Joshua will bust him up badly. Parker has a good chin though so he'll take a good licking before subsequently being pulled out by his trainer or the ref stopping if.

He'll get a nice payday though so it's all good.

[davie]

Bollocks, just read the article and it isn't officially confirmed.
Stuff it, I'm leaving it up, it can be the official thread for the fight once it's official.
I can change the thread title to "RBR AJ vs Parker" on fight night too!

[Killer Blow]

It's hard to see how this fight won't happen at this point. Great fight anyway. Two legit top heavyweights that aren't snoozers. May the best man win.

[Neil Gee]

Fantastic bout. Hope it comes off!

[Stuarty]

Still think it'll be Stiverne. Either that or Audley

He's going to do it anyway

Nice use of the asterisk in the title - surprisingly underused on this forum

I disagree.

[Horse]

Very good opponent if the fight happens.

Joshua will have some credibility as IBF champion if he wins.

Yes.

[crusader]

What part of that article suggests it's confirmed? AJ was just quoted as saying they don't have a deal done.

Edit....see davie caught that too

If Parker goes ahead on Oct 1 he shouldn't be fighting 7 weeks later in the biggest fight of his career to date.

Look how massively hyped Parker is ....a grand total of 1 person has him winning!

What has that got to do with my post exactly? Where did I say anything about hype in my post before you interjected with some snarkiness?

[crusader]

You didn't , but I know how often you've posted that Parker is a hypejob. I would've expected much more support for such a hyped fighter

Jesus, do you have to come to the rescue of every fighter you like when somebody says something that isn't positive about them. I'm sure they dont care whether somebody on the Internet rates them or not.

[Killer Blow]

The fight is as good as confirmed let's be honest. Who else is suddenly going to be announced in the next week?

I'm just kidding with you mate

I've never thought Parker was that hyped, and it seems like most rightfully expect him to get flattened.

Gary Cornish the rematch

[lefty]

You say that but there is a hardcore group of people on other sites in particular that do believe Parker is the next great heavyweight and that he's gonna smash up Joshua, etc, etc

Stiverne?

No chance. He already turned it down.
