    Barry's official plan was for Parker to attack in the latter rounds but Joe did not have enough energy left. Truth be told, Barry was happy just to last the distance and raise Parker's stock - he was clearly a very nervous man tonight and was terrified of Joshua's power. He'll be relatively happy with how Parker did despite losing. Fortunately the nervousness did not rub off on Parker, but Parker should certainly switch trainers to learn new things.

    So yeah it wasn't a spectacular fight, but it was still good. Great win for AJ, one step closer to undisputency and as for Parker, he should keep his head up high. Good night fellas and remember to always be Kawaii Desu. :chuck:

    Some very poor losers on here tonight, partially blinded by their hatred they can’t see straight. Best advice is go to bed and stop making fools of yourselves!!

    I'm afraid I honestly think Joshua won a close fight. I'll watch it again at some stage and we'll see if my card changes, but if I thought it was a robbery I'd be up in arms for sure.

    However, I will admit that you raise a fair point. Rooting hard for Parker while trying to score the fight isn't all that easy, and overcompensating for that inherent bias is possible.

    Who to tho and what would you like to see him work on

    Parker’s movement was alright I thought, rare you see HWs actually moving their feet in this crop of HWs so it was good to see actual boxing for a change

    Wasn’t perfect and got stuck couple times but I thought Parker did alright with Barry

    Any top trainer, basically. Barry is a decent trainer but not in the same class as some others. One obvious preference would be Sanchez - physically Parker is a bit like Gassiev so perhaps that could work.

    the aj fanboys and the hype is pathetic his just not very good at all his just a roided up fake person he got at least two gift wins in the olympics and got a easy title because they stripped fury which they wouldn't have done it klitchsko didn't lose and then he beat a shell of a great fighter to unify which again the cards were a joke and it's the same thing with the cards against parker lol my lass was sitting there when I was watching the fight and she hates boxing and I didn't know she was even watching it because I was fuming at commentators and she said is the big one the one everyone likes I said yes and she said his really slow and stiff and keeps missing wildly and that's from someone that hates boxing so don't get how all these fanboys and even fangirls can say his amazing it can't be his skills because all he has it that one two and his power in completely overrated it's got to be the mask his wearing this trash is really killing my love for boxing
