    Can't give* as in he CAN NOT care about his performance, because if he can, then he cares!!

    I'm not a grammar police but every man has a weakness, and mine is when people say "I could care less" instead of the correct way which is, "I couldn't care less"! More people get it wrong than right!!

    Not really interested till Kevin Barry is gone. It's going to be the same Parker as always: a level below elite, because he's not willing to make the necessary change/s to his camp.

    I disagree with the level below elite but I totally understand why you place him there and I agree with everything else.

    Joe is doing a bit of work with Lennox Lewis which I'm happy to hear about as Lennox believes in Joe. But I heard its only a short term thing.

    Parker still has a lot of upside. I had him edging Whyte slightly despite the BS knockdown called against him. He looked very lethargic that night though, definitely not his best performance. He desperately needs to change teams. But he's a humble and loyal guy and it's unlikely he'll do that. Still say as I have been saying for years on here that Abel Sanchez is the best choice for Parker - he can bring out and harness the dog in him.

    He's also in his comfort zone with KB. I'm not going to buy PPV cards when the fighter isn't going to put themselves in the best position possible to improve.

    Molina fits the bill I guess, or maybe Wach or Duhaupas if they're looking for someone durable.

    Let me guess the articles the week before the fight:
    - the elbow is finally 100% healed
    - Parker has been reinvented in 6 weeks
    - the power is there
    - toughest camp ever
    - one sparring partner was decapitated

    He come out sweet, then the head clash happened, and it blatantly messed him up
