    Parker will beat Usyk of he isn't fully fit. Also Kabayel if Usyk has a knee injury like Sanchez did.

    I agree Parker has the best chance, and I want the Parker fight as much as almost anyone...but I still expect Usyk to win. Parker's best asset is that he's a determined man who tries different things, and he's not going to cruise to a loss like AJ or Fury in the second fight. However, he's going to have to up that workrate to have a chance.

    I like Kabayel, but I think people are overvaluing him because of the body punching. He's not pushing Usyk up on the ropes like he did the others. And unlike Parker, who has been in with the elite, Agit is in for a level shock.

    Yeah Usyk is the clear favourite, but people are completely writing Parker off. Usyk is slowing down, where as Parker is in his prime and has faster hands than anyone Usyk has been in with since Cruiserweight.

    Where as Parker's recent wins have diminished with time and hindsight, Kabayel's seem to have increased. It still took him 6+ rounds to corner a cripple Sanchez, a healthy Usyk will be much more of a challenge.

    That sucks lol.
    So Ill wind up seeing Usyk lose after all. Then will have to put up with countless
    ' told you he was overrated' statements and he will drop on atg lists.

    Id have figured that the amounts Usyk has made recently would go a very very long ways in Ukraine. I dont get jeopardizing your legacy and health for a couple more millions.

    I know fighters tend to be more pragmatic though when it comes to legacy and such. Think thats generally more important to fans than it is to fighters.

    Parker lost to Whyte, which tells a lot about him.

    He needs to be concussed by a headbutt ruled as a knock down early in a fight to lose? A bit obscure, but you do you mate.
