    That was the same old Parker, Wilder simply did nothing for 12 rounds.

    Notice that when Parker rushed in for his attacks

    one great tactic was that he ducked right into Wilder's chest to prevent Wilder's return fire.

    Very very good tactic - used quite a lot

    So buzzed for Parker but I think he should target AJ and retire.

    Parker was very likely the one who cracked Joyce's chin.

    Joyce was never the same after the Parker fight

    Notice how Parker took away Wilder's right hand with constant movement, hard counters,

    and winging right hooks as a LEAD punch

    That I don't agree with. I think a healthy Zhang is about the hardest-hitting mother****er in the division right now.

    That said, I think Parker is a tougher opponent for Zhang than Joyce was.

    Maybe, Beantown

    But Parker hit Joyce with hard, clean bombs all night long, before succumbing to exhaustion in the 11th. Real BOMBS.

    Watch again and see

    After watching Parker move up through the ranks and rooting for him earlier in his career I had given up hope shortly after his fight with Whyte that he would be a serious title threat. I am beyond ecstatic that Parker is back in the mix and has a fire in his belly. I'm also very happy that he ditched his backfoot safety first style.


    I'll be rooting for Parker to beat AJ. Though I'd say it's a 70/30 in AJs favor.

    I like Parker but in the years I've watch Parker he has been a yoyo with his career. Up and down. When you think he is back and motivated he lays a stinker in his next fight against someone he should easily beat.

    Man stfu. You kiwis are unbearable. Zhangs sniper like shots were just too much for Parker.
