I couldnt take any more. One of worst fights I've ever seen. Neither guy wanted to take any chances and it was obvious. Piss poor. Did I miss anything the last 4 rounds?

parker got even more negative

Ditto

It reminded me of when Johnny Nelson and Carlos DeLeon "fought" in 1990.

Neither of them landed a proper punch and the bout was called a draw because nothing happened.

How Eddie Hearn gets 80,000 mugs to part with large amounts of cash to watch these crap cards is beyond me.

I lost interest too. It wasn't a real fight. It was "sports entertainment", like they make they call wrasslin now. The hired monkey dressed up in the referee suit wouldn't let Parker fight on the inside where he needed to fight. Then the predictably silly scores from the employees dressed up in judge suits. Anyway, I just came for the Povetkin fight. That was the real main event. Price looked better than he ever did before I thought, but Povetkin is the real heavyweight world champion. Unlike Joshua and Wilder he wins his fights without the help of crook refs and judges, and he even has to contend with out and out western gangsters from organized crime's own city in the desert, namely Doctor Margaret Goodman and her Las Vegas NeVADA drug test crew (look her up and see what her patients have to say about her!)

Blame the ref! Everytime Parker got close or inside the god damn ref panicked and stopped fight.

It turned into a sparring session.

Parker’s game plan was clear , go to body but stay away from Joshua’s right uppercut and work on inside with combos .

After warnings from ref and stopping action Parker clearly gave up and didn’t have any back up plan.

I don't know what people were expecting. Parker fought as a coward against the much lesser fat boy Ruiz.

I'm not sure where they found that ref, but I suspect he was paid well. It was if he was so over-protective of Joshua, it was pathetic to watch. When Bernstein said Parker hurt Joshua with the right hand, the ref came in to stop the action. He was also constantly warning Parker, not sure if it was for headbutting or attempting to?

He let Joshua hold Parker behind the head constantly, and hit him with uppercuts with no warning at all. He constantly put Parker in headlocks, then the ref would break them and give Parker some other type of warning. I came close to shutting it off myself.

Parker wasn't supposed to win, or even get close. After the first round, when Joshua landed nothing, and Parker pressed the only action we saw, all gave the round to Joshua. Parker's body shots didn't count I guess either.

Like I said after the fight, Joshua is the new Canelo when he fights in the UK. He will never lose a decision there. Wilder would be a fool to fight there. Any sign of being hurt or stunned at all will surely get the fight stopped. Any sign that AJ is hurt or stunned, will have the ref stopping the action.
