    If tonight was meant to be Parker impressing the world he failed badly.

    Talk about this when AJ fights a top 10 opponent at aged 24.

    What does his age have to do with it?

    He has loads of flaws and would get knocked out easily. :good

    It's easy to pick the flaws on Parker now because he's been pushed to the limit. It would be easy to say Joshua would win easily and he may very well do so but until we see Joshua tested against by an opponent close to Takam's level we can't say for sure how a fight would play out between them.

    Parker showed a good chin and plenty of heart, he fought back hard when under pressure and dug deep when need to. He isn't a guy that will just roll over or not give it his all when pushed, we've yet to see how Joshua would deal with such adversity the bad round he had against Whyte was a mere blip compared to what Parker showed with Takam.

    But having said that I would favour Joshua at the moment. His size, power, accuracy and Parker's openness to being countered could very well see another Joshua KO win.

    With ease? He was hurt by Whyte. It won't be easy to beat Parker

    Anyone with a brain knows Joshua fought with emotion vs Whyte. Reading too much into that is ridiculous.

    Parker is pretty stiff, isn't he? I can't see him lasting long against Joshua.

    This was a massive massive step up for Joe, by the same logic it wouldn't be fair to read too much into it.

    I do think that Joshua beats Parker at the moment, probably inside the distance, but Joshua is not undefeatable.

    I don't think Joshua has the chin to withstand Parker's speed and power. Parker showed he has a very good chin tonight.

    Over reaction, Joshua was getting slaughtered after the Whyte fight, he was shook and hurt in that fight and many people said he will get rolled out like a carpet as soon as steps up.

    Has Joshua stepped up since Whyte? Joshua would be a heavy favourite but don't dismiss Parker because of a performance that wasn't overly impressive.

    We've seen Fury get dropped by Steve Cunningham and go on to beat Klitschko and be regarded as the best HW on the planet.
    Fighters do have poor/average performances and good ones learn and move on, let's see if Parker learns and then judge.

    People are so quick to write fighters off, I don't understand why the focus has to be on the negative only and none of the positives Parker showed.

    Parker wobbled Takam more than Takam wobbled Parker. You clearly didn't watch the fight. Dillian Whyte is a club fighter at best.

    People talking about Parkers defence as if AJ has a good defence! AJ has no jab, no head movement, Parker would land combos with his fast hands on the stiff AJ, Parker has a granite Samoan chin, and just beat a guy levels above any of Joshua's opponents, my money will be on Parker when they collide.
