    In a few years time?! Your not trying to say Bruno was better than AJ?!

    The exact opposite. Why would my overall conclusion of whether Parker could beat Bruno be based solely on how he performs against Joshua? He's only 26 and has a lot of room for improvement. Even if he upsets Joshua, don't get me wrong I'm optimistic about his chances, I don't view Parker as someone that could hold the division down. I assume he'll go down as a world level fighter that has benefitted from their being 4 world championship belts in each weight class and has a claim to call them self heavyweight champion of the world. Similar kind of level to Bruno, so the reason I said a few years, is because I'm more interested how he fares against people on Bruno's level.

    Parker is untested at world level.until he ie beats or gives a AJ a hard fight this is guess work.Bruno was tested we knew what he could and couldn't do .

    I agree with that. By the time Bruno had beat McCall we knew him inside and out .Parker's record is decent enough but would he have taken a Bruno right hand well enough?
    Once he gets in there with Joshua and the fights over, then we can really come to some sort of conclusion.
    At the moment im gonna go with Bruno by a hard fought decision, one in which Parker is hurt several times ,and Frank would be hanging on at the end .

    Judging by the fight with AJ Bruno wouldn`t of hurt Parker so couldn`t of kept him off, Parker would have beat McCall far more convincingly than Bruno did who clinging on to McCall at the end he had no stamina that`s why Parker and AJ paced themselves on Saturday if Bruno fought how he did v Witherspoon he would be easy to counter and would gas.
