Joseph Parker: The Samoan Sledgehammer Of South Auckland-The Heavyweight Kaipato Kiwi

He has nothing in common with David Tua and from watching his fights I'd say he doesn't have half the talent.

 

Most People etc etc

 

Nice finish on Botha there.. Looks to have a quick jab too.

 

Tank Williams is no pushover, I think this guy certainly has potential. I woulda been more impressed with a KO but everyone knows Tank has an iron jaw.

 

Brutal shot there, kid has some serious power. He's definitely one to watch and has an exciting style. Will be interesting to see how he develops and if he can iron out some of the more obvious technical flaws.

 

Great KO by Parker. He still needs to work his defence, but he threw some bombs at the Brazilian. Great prospect, he's still young (22) and I'm excited about what he will do in 2/3 years.

 

CST when you get a chance shoot me over a note.

Did it really say "too many jakeoaree's"

 

He is better than Tua.

Tua was as ONE DIMENSIONAL as a fighter can be. Power and chin. Essentially a 90s version of the 2000's Peter.

Parker has the TOOLS of Champion. Not just a one hit wonder who scores KOs over incomplete fighters. :good

I think Parker is right up there with AJ as top HW prospect.:thumbsup

 

do you mean come up short anytime he stepped up? get outboxed by anyone who has a good jab and movement? knock out only cans or has beens?
lets hope not

 

:good

Nice take on TUA.

And no......Parker looks like the complete package. Not just a come forward h00ker with a chin.:good

 

Parker To me is the best young prospect ahead of Joshua. He needs work but his flaws are fixable. Great hand speed, and power. Good work rate, good chin and heart. Can be a Holyfield type if he improves on defense and gives a few more angles.
