    Indeed. These are reasons I believe that while I've voted Joshua the likely winner, there is a really good chance this is Joshua's sternest test so far

    Those guys were body bags. Joshua looked quite fast against Martin and Breazelle when he was down around 245.

    Parker will have to watch out for Joshua's speed too.

    Meehan, Takam and Dimitrenko were all well-ranked when Parker fought them.

    You can see how much faster Parker is than Joshua in all those fights. (Especially when opponents are taller).

    How do you think Parker became Top 5 in most of the Alphabets?

    He fought a bunch of ranked guys as he was coming up.

    Meehan was good , yeah ... in 2005. Not 2015. lol

    He actually did a hell of a lot better against Brewster than prime Klitschko did and was robbed of a decision victory.

    Parker didn't make the top 10 till after he beat Riuz.

    Tatum never featured in the Ring top 10 and Meehan and Dimitrenko were beyond top 50 rankers.

    Hahaha I can see a bunch of posts which are obviously responding to some troll/casual I must have blocked in the past (as there is no post in between). Clearly I blocked them for good reason

    Parker was number 1 in both IBF and WBO before beating Dimitrenko. Ruiz was next.

    Please check your facts, Dino.

    Peace, out.

    Huh? Only Ring rankings matter and none of those 3 were highly ranked as you claimed , they weren't ranked at all. You check your facts please as nobody uses the sanctioning bodies as a ranking system.

    Think we can all envisage Parker landing shots due to his speed. That is an advantage. Reach is another advantage and we know who wins that battle.

    Wlad certainly lost some speed but he was fast even at 41.

    I think Parker's speed advantage would be more evident against 254 (or more) version of AJ, but I suppose AJ comes in under 250 lbs this time.
