    Yeah an Olympic medal winner has BOXING ability. When did Parker ever win a medal in the ams.

    joshua will win by early ko!

    i saw AJ fight in the amateurs and he had grown men rolling around in pain and this was when he was still a teen!

    the power is for real, whyte has a chin and a half no doubt.

    agreed that he needs to work on his defence and movement and also that ortiz is all wrong for him.

    Joshua by KO. Around 5th round. Parker was getting hit way too often against Takam. I do rate Parker but I just think AJ is a level above. Would like to see the fight tho!

    In terms of styles I favour Joshua. Parker likes to lead with his fast hands and leave himself open to be countered and Joshua has developed a nice counter right hand which we saw against Martin.

    Joshua has the better jab and should use that to control range waiting for Parker to come in, when he does and Parker throws his flashy combo's, Joshua will pick a spot and drill that right hand between Parkers shots. I can't see Parker taking too many of AJ's right hands even with his solid chin.

    Parker needs to improve his foot work, defence and counter punching skills before he's a serious threat to Joshua. He needs to be able to go in and out or learn to clinch after he throws his combo's to prevent any counters.

    You need to compare the Joshua of 3 years ago against the Parker of today.

    Then I take Parker.

    Why ????

    Joshua has had 3 less bouts then Parker and is about to fight his 4th undefeated opponent in a row. Joshua has been a pro for 3 years and this time 3 years ago he had just his first pro fight !!!!!!


    I don't know what you are smoking :rasta look at Parkers next fight and look at Joshuas :deal

    Takam was a walking punch bag for moist of the fight hardly letting his hands go, Joshua destroys Parker inside 3 rounds.

    Parker's win over Takam is better than anything Joshua has done. Joshua is fighting yet another bum in his next fight. Why?

    Now we are overrating Takam to blow up Parker. Lmao... This won't even by a fight. Parker is not ready for a guy like Joshua. Parker might get finished before he gets started.

    Takam would be Joshua's best win. If Joshua is so 'ready' why is he fighting Breazeale next?

    Thats a good fight wtf are you talking about. Joshua isn't a champion, he's a titlist.

    And Takam wouldn't last 2 rounds with Joshua.
