    Vlad completely outclassed Joshua in camp, no contest. If Vlad is 50% of what he was, he will outbox and knock Joshua out..................Vlad's skills are too good for Joshua, experience, etc.

    After watching Parkers recent performances

    I think parker will brutally KO AJ inside 4 rounds, Joshua is tailor made.

    Parker has the fastest hand's in the division, an iron jaw, brutal power and 12 rounds stamina

    Parker looks the real deal indeed. I would say him and AJ are of a similar level. I don't get why the bookies have AJ as a massive favourite.

    I think this one comes down to who has the better chin as neither are hard to hit.

    This fight could end up being a real stinker to begin with due to Parkers speed and AJs power, neither will want to commit.
    AJ is really good at judging the distance and timing though I've noticed, he never goes out guns blazing and always keeps a cool head, I think he boxes smart and eventually walks through Parker mid rounds.

    Parker has no defence and goes back in straight lines. Am not a massive Aj fan but there's a reason his team are pushing to fight Ruiz for the wbo and not Aj for the ibf.

    Only seen Parkers last two fights.

    Nothing to trouble Joshua in my view.

    In my opinion the winner will be simply the first man to land the jab and right hand through the guard on the chin first. They are both experts at it and both have KO power behind it.

    Still really think klit will win this one, Joshua tailor made for him, not a mover and can be caught with the left hook easy.

    Both at similar level although Parker has the better stand out win over Takam.

    Toss up of a fight.

    I don't see what you guys are seeing in Parker, I personally don't rate him as a big puncher at the top level, he is a good puncher with very fast hands. He has a great jab but doesn't use it as much as he should.
    Both men have defensive flaws but Parker's stand out more, he's pulls his head back and only move back in straight lines.

    If and When AJ and JP fight, Parker will be getting stopped I just wished the bookies reflected what you guys thought so I could bet more on AJ.

    I'm a Brit and I regard it as 50/50 fight. Both similar level but Parker has the marginally better CV.

    Parkers too crude at the mo I think AJ is favourite, fight I'd like to see though.

    Wont need to be a big puncher to beat joshua. Speed will do it. Whyte whos not a massive puncher himself almost got the job done

    The bookies have Joshua at 1/14 to win.

    Whilst that is kinda extreme I can't see how Parker right now can win the fight.

    Also, with the way things are mapping out I cant see this fight happening before 2018. By that time we should know a bit more about both of them, and if indeed they hold belts, as it is more than possible they will both be former champs by then.
