    Guybino - what if Parker is naturally the "bigger" man?

    (Broader - but 2 inches shorter)

    Double jab and R hand to the body OH R when AJ pushes off and goes backwards in a straight line. KD recipe 1

    he also has the shorter reach by some, and his general build is smaller when they stand next to each other. Parker is quite thick built, but I would imagine that all measurements favour AJ.

    My point being - Parker is the smaller man.

    Yes but this fight has got a whole lot more to it than body types.

    Every day you post some nonsense in favour of Parker.

    It’s like you’re trying to convince yourself that he actually stands a chance.

    He doesn’t.

    I never thought of Anthony joshua as a lanky or slender type, too bulky for that descripion

    Funny, you are trying to convince yourself Parker doesn't have a chance, when he does.

    I don’t need to convince myself. I know he doesn’t. The likes of Wilder, Fury, Povetkin yeah. Joseph Parker has no chance. He’s the Southern Hemisphere Charles Martin.

    Joshua is somewhat lanky without mucles. But then again look at his thighs... real samoan core power right there. People thinking Wilder would push him back are fck deluded.

    His heritage is Samoan. They have naturally thicker skulls. Doesn't mean they cant be knocked out, it's just harder. And when you get a Samoan with a really good chin, well, their beard is tougher than a coffin nail. Considering Parker has been boxing since he was 5 and has never been down, hurt or buzzed, if AJ gets him out of there it will be a testament to his power.
