    You said he was a better champion?

    If you've mentioned this before then I'm sorry, I must have missed it.

    Congratulations to you and Mrs Twenty.

    And the hilarious thing here, even if you go along with that, is that all of those bouts ended up in controversial wins, to varying degrees, for Parker. None of them convincing in the slightest.

    Thank you bud. She's 16 weeks along. I'm looking forward to seeing the time of @Heisenberg 's posts from this week onwards. There will be loads from the middle of the night haha.

    A horrible fight but Junior Fa deserves some credit. Even if Parker has been very overrated over the last 5 years or so, Fa proved to be better than people said.
    I still think Parker beats Chisora and probably would win a rematch with Whyte.

    Guys like Parker, Hughie Fury, Whyte, Chisora, Wallin, Rivas are all on the same level.
    Probably throw Joyce and Yoka in that mix too now.

    I thought the judges were spot on Ruiz fight, thought rounds were clear cut. I had Parker winning by 2 points as the judges did.

    I thought Parker beat comfortably 8-4 Takam.

    I can see the controversial side of the Hughie fight as it us such ugly fight with excessive clinching with most rounds tough to score (I had Parker winning by several rounds myself).

    Well more proven quality as a fighter to be a champion. I don't think Parker should discredit for doing what Wilder didnt and have the ambition and guts to attempt to unify and fight AJ. Parker could of played it safe and picked a bunch of hand picked soft opponents like Wilder did (Parker would beat all the opponents Wilder has).
