The books favor Joshua 7-1 and for once i agree with them.

A competitive bout would certainly be more interesting though so I'd be all for it if that's the way it winds up going down.
Let's not engage in hype... CEO??? How many employees???

It would be fabulous for Boxing if Parker won...
The Patterson vs Johansson Trilogy was nothing until Johansson scored the upset... He was a big underdog.
Ali-Norton 1 didn't do a thing.... Ali-Norton 2 was damned big and pulled 4 X the interest... Ali-Norton 3 was massive.
It would actually be a good thing and shake up the division.... Joshua and Parker would each make twice as much in the rematch because people would know it's an extremely competitive match-up... People love drama and suspense.
If Wlilder fought Ortiz in a rematch it would be much bigger as well... Either man could win by KO and the first fight was damned good and beyond expectations... And they both learned a Hell of a lot about each other.
I don't think the above scenarios will happen... Joshua will KO Parker as expected and no trilogy will happen.... And the Wilder team isn't going to give Ortiz another shot at Wilder... Power players in Boxing are too risk adverse right now.
I'm in no way insulted! LMAO! Certainly not from anything you post.Kalan wrote: ↑31 Mar 2018, 14:56Let's not engage in hype... CEO??? How many employees???

Power players in Boxing are too risk adverse right now..... and there are terrible businessmen who are CEO's (ask Warren Buffett) just like we've had terrible presidents... Just saying if Parker won it would be really bad for Hearn and AJ is not the truth... I've given you the Ali-Norton and Patterson-Johansson analogies.... Those match-ups went from NOTHING to SUPER BIG .... Instead of learning you choose to feel insulted???

(SARCASTIC) Maybe the elbow surgery will make a diff.SenorPipino wrote: ↑31 Mar 2018, 17:11 Joshua to dominate and stop Parker in about 6 or 7.
Parker will be exposed as just another ordinary heavy.
Joshua might still be green but he's no Hughie Fury or even Ruiz--- unfortunately for Parker.
Appreciate the mention of sarcasm. Otherwise I would be lost.oogiebe wrote: ↑31 Mar 2018, 17:12(SARCASTIC) Maybe the elbow surgery will make a diff.SenorPipino wrote: ↑31 Mar 2018, 17:11 Joshua to dominate and stop Parker in about 6 or 7.

Parker had some corrective surgery done to his elbows after his last fight.SenorPipino wrote: ↑31 Mar 2018, 17:26Appreciate the mention of sarcasm.

What an interestingly curated list.
It's almost like someone is missing from Joshua's biggest wins...hmm...
