Crap opponent but it is what it is I guess. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/comba...icanamerican-alexander-flores-in-christchurch
flores has an impressive record how i have no idea 5 month old babys have less babyfat im twice his age and i would be embarresed to be in his shape NZ fans will not be impressed / but parker needs confidence and as long as parker does a number in 2 or 3 rounds it will be ok as a get back on the winning trail again.
The fight I guess makes sense for him and his career to get some momentum started again, but they should call it what it is - they're trying to make him look like a better opponent than he is. At least he has some spirit and is claiming he's going to knock Joe out in 2 hahahaha
Lol I just checked his pic on Boxrec and all I can say is he just doesn’t look like a fighter at all let alone a HW with that dorky pencil neck.
Oh come on this guys is possibly the real deal, only has been beaten by a former IBF World Heavyweight Champ, his last 3 wins in the mecca of boxing Tijuana Mexico!!! All KO's too I might add.. This guys is a player... This guy has also KO'd a guy that put Wilder down like a sack of **** too,,,
He needs a tuneup. The guy is coming off back to back losses fighting his opposition in their backyard. He deserves an easy touch before he tries to shuffle himself back into the top 5-6 in the division. I think Parker is a very good fighter who still has much room for improvement. A dominant win in Auckland will surely help his confidence level moving forward.
