    Too small

    Another Parker in the making probably without the chin

    He's got an entertaining style, like his combinations and use of angles when he unloads.

    But he stays right in front of his opponent after throwing. That might be fine at this level but when he steps up against better opponents who have the power to punish him for that, he will be in trouble.

    Watch when he jabs. He doesnt bring it back to defend, he brings it back to his chest. Counter right takes him out quick.

    Yeah, not sure what he is trying to prove (he is actually trying to punch harder) as his footwork, and movement are as good as his hands in other fights (early fights). He is looking for a brawl, and that aint right..

    I dont agree 6'4 is too small for a modern heavyweight. We just been spoiled by some giants. It wont last.

    Let's see him fight Zhang in China. If he survives first 4 rounds, than we will talk

    25 fight heavy handed veteran, vs a 23yo 7 fight novice. I think youd be a terrible matchmaker..

    However its a fight that may happen as Huni just won; (Pacific & Oriental titles)

    I think his Dad has taken him as far as he can. Huni needs a wiser trainer, someone that sees these little things, sees that changes are needed.

    He is a very good boxer but they have to stop with this notion of getting him to fight like Mike Tyson either his promoter or Justin fortune said it & it's completely wrong, the guys a very skilled boxer actually one of the best but he is not a banger & his chin is not granite he has to stay disciplined & utilise his skills better. If they keep trying to build him into a brawler its going to end in disaster, plus he is still young & his power will build naturally over time, there talking about big fights within 12 months but he is not ready for that yet, it's a shame Lucas Browne is not as durable as he use to be because he would of been a very solid test 4-5 years back

    He had three trainers last night - all telling him different things. The smartest comment came from the bloke who told him to stop standing in front of the other bloke. Same guy who got Opetaia home against Briedis.

    Fk, Breidis is a warrior! Jai did well to get past him, even though Breidis is fighting above his natural weight!

    It's not too small but you better have some top notch attributes and skill to back yourself..because a 6'4" 240 pound will look like a midget next to 6'6" 270 Joyce and 7" tall 300 pound Fury...
