    The bodybuilders been mentally destroyed. He don't got that dog in him. Parker rekindled his passion and found new light against Chisora. Would this new Parker beat Joshua ?

    AJ still, Parker should not have had a close fight with Chisora in the first place

    I think it plays out the same as it did last time - a boring snoozefest and an AJ decision win.

    Joshua isn't Chisora. He couldn't get to Joshua last time and Chisora walks right at you, nothing about the Chisora fight would help him vs Joshua 2nd time around. Parker will need to improve his foot work and head movement when coming in, if he's to do any better.

    Provided they don't hire another Moses as a referee Parker either stops him, or gets a razor close SD after knocking AJ down 4 or 5 times.

    A more aggressive Parker if that is what this thread is getting at gets knocked out. If you cannot knockout this version of Chisora who is basically shot you have no chance against AJ.

    50-50 right now but I suspect the bodybuilder won't have anywhere to go after Usyk2 except his retirement homes far away from his community.

    He already gave a close fight to bodybuilder in 2018 when bodybuilder at his prime despite joke scorecards. I favour Parker by decision at the moment.

    Parker can take far more punishment than AJ can dish out before he gasses in round 5.

    I,d say joshua again. Parker still doesnt have that ability to go all in. A bit similar to joshua...in that they both know if they put it all in their recovery isnt quite good enough.

    I voted Joshua KO but I'm not being stuck as the only other person who agrees with Olu so I changed it.

    Do you actually believe AJ is significantly more durable than Chisora? I have Chisora as the more durable by a reasonable margin. Of course Parker would have a much harder time landing his shots but as Ruiz (one punch) and Usyk (accumulation of punches) have shown if someone is willing to jump into the firing line vs AJ they can have great success. Parker has never looked like the type of guy willing to take a few shots to get off his own until that fight on the weekend, he'll generally trade more flat footed at distance rather than come forward. Much harder to come forwards vs AJ but it's a step in the right direction.

    I agree still a better than 80% chance that AJ wins but I wouldn't write off JP being able to catch and knock out AJ.
