by pound per pound
Joshua via decision. Could be a split decision where one judge sees it a draw, the other two for Joshua by 7-5 or 7-4-1.

There are only a few people on this forum calling for Parker to have any sorta success at all in this bout. I'll be impressed if any of you guys are right on that. I expect him to be beaten in fairly one sided fashion, and I doubt he wins any rounds either.

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.

Yes...for Eddie Hearn(ia) and AJ.
You guys are terrible businessmen and thinkers.... 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.
Since I'm a CEO I guess you're correct that we're terrible businessmen...(your comments are amazing really!)...Every unexpected change opens up new opportunities.. Please stop insulting...it has nothing to do with the debate/discussion. Doesn't help.
Let's not engage in hype... CEO??? How many employees??? I know you won't answer that :oo .... 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??? :shame:

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.

(SARCASTIC) Maybe the elbow surgery will make a diff.

Parker had some corrective surgery done to his elbows after his last fight.

It's almost like someone is missing from Joshua's biggest wins...hmm...

That being said, I absolutely think Parker will have his moments. I believe his stock will go up after today--but since AJ is in better shape he will win. I predicted 11th round stoppage.
