Parker has never really been a puncher. Going extended rounds is not a shock.

As long as he dominated, Parker didn't dissappoint.

Yehh. Parker isn’t a KO artist. Doesn’t always get stoppages. He did think it went longer than he expected but he benefited from the rounds and he said Alex has a very strong head!

Parker has the engine to go 12 rounds with any HW.

A lot of fans get down on a fighter if he doesn't score a speedy KO against an overmatched fighter.

That's probably why you hear that Spence is just hype because he didn't put away Garcia.

They ignore his dominance just as some are ignoring that Parker dished out a one sided beating to a former title challenger.

Or when AJ didn’t knockout Parker.

Never mind his chin. What about his damaged eyes?

Medical opinion was if Leapai fought again he risked permanent blindness and that is precisely why he retired.

Maybe, after saying he was retiring for health reasons, he just decided he'd risk his health again for a few more paydays.

Just a thought.

I think he did have surgery but I didn’t believe it was with a view to coming back, just to repair damage...
