    He said Groves hit harder with single shots but GGG had more steam on his combinations.

    Joseph Parker to win just one more big round against Joshua and lift the titles off him... A combination of almost doing it in reality (and also not getting credit for the effort), being what seems like a really chill dude, and shaking things up dramatically.

    I respect you, your opinions, and your scorecards. Having said that I thought Joshua beat comfortably 116-112 I believe, also worthy of noting almost every boxing scribe or media outlet that covers the sport had it for Joshua wide or comfortable.

    Here's a short list

    SkySports - 118-111 Joshua
    Showtime - 117-112 Joshua
    The Guardian - 115-113 Joshua
    Gareth A Davies - 117-111 Joshua
    The Telegraph - 119-112 Joshua
    BloodyElbow - 117-111 Joshua
    The Sun - 116-112 Joshua
    BadLeftHook - 115-113 Joshua
    SBNation - 116-112 Joshua
    Kevin Iole - 115-113 Joshua
    Fightful - 118-110 Joshua
    SportingNews - 116-112 Joshua

    The fight at best was a draw to 7-5 AJ, I had it for Parker by a round, that was a really hard match to score, and I'm not being biased here.:deal:

    I'm well aware I'm in the very small minority.

    It's what I saw, it's how I feel.

    Random question... but what in the hell is "The Telegraph" and how did they manage 119-112? Not even that it was that wide, but just what an odd score. Three even rounds?

    No idea just a list I found and copied and pasted lol. 119-112 is way to wide I agree, and weird as well also in agreement.

    Daniel Jacobs.

    He never won a real belt and he's probably gonna lose in his next fight for the IBF strap.

    Gabriel Rosado, Michael Katsidis, Derreck Chisora or David Price. Let one of these lads become a cinderella man, they may not be at their best but theyve earned it over the years with their entertainment.

    I give it to Andre Ward, that way he will loose his 0 against Usyk

    I think he might become the oldest man to win a belt. With Usyk soon to vacate, i think Arslan will be in line for the vacant WBO belt. He is currently ranked 3rd by them.
    Dude is 47 and going strong.
