    So you train once a week and now you think you're a big shot tough guy who can tell how strong and experienced others are through your computer screen!

    Laughable.

    You don't have a clue what type of training I do so I'd suggest you put down the assumptions.

    Your eagerness to appear as if you know a what it takes to perform inside the ring is just making you sound like a plum.

    In any fight you are going to get tired and absorb damage that's when you dig deep and it was evident Wlad was prepared to do so.

    Just like Joshua was when he was tired and absorbing damage in the 5/6th round yet the ref never had any intent to jump in and stop the fight. It never crossed his mind.

    There have been many a time in boxing when a fighter has looked out on their feet in the later rounds only to heroicly whether the storm whilst the opponent has empted the tank after throwing the kitchen sink in order try and finish the job.

    Some of the greatest come backs in boxing history have resulted in this scenario.

    My argument is that neither Wlad or Takum were on the receiving end of taking concussive shots which warranted the ref to stop the fight so prematurely in a world title fight.

    Well Wlad was already dropped heavily twice before in that round and was pinned against the ropes taking heavy fire, so regardless of how much was landing cleanly there aren't too many ways of coming back from that, and a whole lotta ways in which it can go south really quickly. Had the ref let it go on it's conceivable that Wlad could have somehow survived the round. But he would have been in no fit state to continue, let alone mount a miraculous comeback in the twelfth, and would likely have been pulled out by his own corner anyway, which is always an anticlimactic way to end a fight, let alone a career.

    I'm well aware that our refs have been pretty blatantly biased in past fights and continue to be so, but they're also capable of doing some good work at times, and this was one of them.

    Movement and elusiveness is the key to Parker being competitive in the fight. It’s something that Parker has shown in his career, albeit not recently as recent opponents were overly negative and just came to not get knocked out (Hughie, Cojanu)

    The other question is how will Parker approach the fight from an attacking stand point. Does he try and punch with the puncher? If he can avoid AJs shots and land his own (Like Corrie Sanders did with Wlad) that’s the most effective strategy but also the most high risk.

    For attacking strategy it depends on the risks Parker is prepared to take to get off. AJ is an up and down straight Joe style. So movement should trouble him, and Parker could win with a more low risk approach.

    On Joshua's last two stoppages.

    For the Wlad stoppage I noticed that from one of the replay angled you can actually see that Joshua knocks outs Wlads mouthpiece with the last punch he throws before the ref jumps in. The punch landed flush on Wlads right glove. I think David Fields saw it go and that was what caused him to jump in.

    Even still Wlad can have no complaints. David Fields is an American referee and was Wlads choice. (I believe there is going to be another neutral ref for Joshua Parker btw but I could be wrong). Wlad could easily have been stopped following the previous two knock downs. Both times he tries to reach for the ropes and at first misses, he looked like I do when I try to get out of bed when I'm feeling ill lol. And when the ref asked Wlad to walk towards him Wlad walks in the wrong direction! Wlad was never going to make a come back, in the minute and a half between the uppercut and the stoppage Wlad didn't throw a punch. He was just trying to survive, while Joshua occasionally tried to come back in r5 & 6. So yeah he can have no complaints.

    Takam can have more complaints, he wasn't seriously hurt at the stoppage. But in my opinion Takams dark skin was hiding the extent of his cuts, they were nearly as bad as Vitali's against Lewis. You see the doctor and the ref have a long conversation in the ninth. Maybe the doctor said stop the fight if Takam is struggling. I don't know, if not then it was a bs stoppage.

    For me the way to beat Joshua is get off first on him. Put him on the back foot on the exchange to stop him countering. Hes very good at countering the single shot...or when opponents throw then go to sleep after it...something parkers guilty of. Parker needs to throw in two,s or threes. Just enough to put Joshua on the back foot. Then get out of there box and move on the outside before going back inside with two,s and threes. Due to size difference parker will need to kick his attack off from too far out...I ve seen him do it successully before tho. Joshuas great but he,s programmed as opposed to being a highly skilled fighter. He won't pick you off in the exchange against two,s and threes. He usually counters by bouncing back on you.

    He doesn't deal with the two,s and threes too well tho. That second of putting him on the back foot should give you the time needed to get out. Whyte got a bit of success with the two,s and threes.

    What happens is joshua forces them on the back foot with his size and hes pretty decent at not giving much to hit with his guard/long arms. The opponent goes on the back foot. With the aim to counter him from there. The problem is Joshua's very hard to counter on the back foot..with them big arms his size. Even when he hits gloves etc it forces/moves you back. How can you counter that on the back foot. It doesn't work...he then gets enough through to hurt you or beat you up. And won't really tire cause hes in control at that point.

    There's nothing wrong about backing up with him but you need to get off first. And push him back with it. Before getting out.

    I would like to believe it and be more inclined to consider it plausible it weren't that he keeps also doint that in all his fights - including 2 or 3 he was dangerously close to losing

    Klitschko had been on the floor twice in the round, the second knockdown was heavy, he was unsteady on his feet, retreated to a corner and slumped there not throwing anything back.

    Klitschko himself didnt even complain so why the fukk are you

    Wlad should have spat out his shield and bought the time to get to the bell. I bet he would have smashed Femi in the 12th.

    I fully understand and respect your reasoning. However many fighters have come back from those kind of onslaughts and like I said Wlad still had his wits about him. In the final round anything could have happened considering Joshua was struggling himself to get through the rounds and threw everything he had which is why many of his shots were not landing clean and didn't have much power behind them.

    I'd like you to take a look at the video again in the ending of the fight and tell me that you seriously believe Wlad was taking so much damage that the referee had absolutely no choice but to stop the fight. And let me know if you believe they'd have stopped it if Joshua was dodging those last punches.

    Time stamped for you. Only one body shot landed clean, the other punches at the head Wlad was dodging and there was only 35 seconds left in that round.
