    Pathetic, you’re still reaching for something that’s clearly not there!

    Quite to the contrary, AJ was ready to go toe-to-toe with Parker. This wasn't about Parker 'finishing off' AJ.

    I think he wanted to pour it on Parker as the ref broke it up, kinda acknowledging to himself he had to pay Parker back. I think he can be hurt, but it brings the fighter out in him also

    I've watched that first clip you posted....what am i missing?

    I didn't even see Parker land.

    I did see very impressive defensive footwork from a 'bodybuilder'.

    Retreating backwards before the ref jumps in like a policeman isn't impressive.

    I'm not buying that Joshua was hurt at all. Looks like he was trying to get distance to counter Parker in one of the very few times Parker engaged.

    But i do think for the sake of his reputation Joshua does need to fight away soon. He's definitely being helped in his recent fights although not to the extent some in this forum would suggest.

    1:10:30 Clip 1.

    This is the story of the fight.

    Joshua walking down Parker, Parker trying to survive by putting his head under Joshua's arm.

    Ref seperating them (Quite rightly in this scenario).

    Joshua trying to force inside fighting again. Even trying to engage Parker when the ref is seperating them.




    The most impressive 'boxing' performance from a heavyweight in years....

    - Good jab
    - Good footwork
    - 12 rounds of aggression = good stamina
    - Good defence, especially blocking punches


    Keep hating haters.

    Parker threw about 15 punches and didn't land.

    Joshua was laughing at him.

    Aruging with what everyone can see is stupid.

    Why did Parker fight like Hughie Fury?

    I agree. He wants to dish out quick paybacks sometimes when someone gets under his skin; he's not as careful and disciplined as he should be. This will eventually be AJ's downfall one day and he'll get knocked out while being careless.

    Round 11 - 12 seconds remaining. That is when AJ was hurt the most. Can't see if it was a head or body shot, but AJ definitely sunk low and recoiled.
