    People who are concentrated on weight fail to recognize he hasn't fought below 245 since his 10th fight. They have no clue what their talking about. He has barely lost any rounds and has never been behind in a fight.

    I've never seen such scrutiny for a fighter who is bringing excitement back too boxing and as usual fans evaluate the guy who doesn't need evaluation.... that would be Parker, such fools. Lol

    Unfortuantely however much weight he loses and however cute he looks, it doesn't hide the fact he has a dodgy chin.
    Can't fix that

    Wonder if he is off the roids? He knows Parker trained for speed, so I guess he is training for speed also.................

    You have to look at the overall package though. Wlad's chin was never granite.

    I agree. Many people are thinking with emotion not rationale. Realistically Joshua is #1 but it wouldn't be shocking if he or anyone lost as it's HW boxing and none of them are that special. Makes for a very intriguing division.

    The best time to catch Joshua was in his last fight, he came in way too heavy in his quest to become some massive juggernaut.

    Sadly for joshua haters that time has passed.

    When Joshua comes in <245 he has surprising handspeed on the counter which spells disaster for Parker who literally leaves his chin hanging out.

    I honestly wouldnt be shocked if this goes similar to the Charles Martin fight. Parker has never been hit with the kind of punches he's going to take in this fight . He's just far too easy to hit totally flush.

    IF parker does have a tua esque chin i see him getting stopped mid-late on facial damage and just getting pummeled.

    If not he's getting sparked

    Good, like everybody else i could see clearly that the sheer bulk of the man was not helping his cause. Im sure it must be demoralizing to feel like you are throwing punches against a brick wall but not as demoralizing as throwing punches against a mobile brick wall that is faster than you.

    AGAIN I say=

    112.9 kg is 249 lbs.

    In other words - AJ is way heavier than you are saying!!

    Joshua best weight is the mid 240s. I think he could have stopped Wlad earlier if he came in lighter like the Brezeale and Martin fights.

    Joshua's weight right now is meaningless. Come fight week when training tails off, it will shoot up.

    It depends on where in his peds cycle he is at. He will be the same as he is always a big lumbering no chin racist. If this was five years ago he would be nothing more than a wet fart on wlads record.

    I think 240-245 is his best weight, 250 or higher, too heavy.
