    Exactly, he would do the same to Usyk... and he doesn't try to hide his tactics... he openly declares war and says he won't try to box these guys... he has 15 years less experience than Parker.

    Usually a skilled boxer would beat a box fighter of similar stature unless there is like a 50+ pound weight difference

    He went for it until he got headbutted. Clearly affected his game plan. Bone against brain here.

    Parker would have killed Whyte In the later rounds. He took Whyte's best left hook after the headbutt and still got up.

    Parker could be top 3 In my opinion. He is naturally talented compared to Whyte, AJ.

    Lol, how can you say no?! Ok, it won’t be a “easy” fight for Parker, Hunter is tough for anyone but Parker is a “easy” pick to win the fight. Size matters and Parker is a lot bigger&stronger.

    Parker come out ripping Whyte, I do think the head clash hurt Parker and took him off his game

    Yeah, I didn’t mean it’ll be a easy fight, I meant Parker is a easy pick to win against Hunter.

    I think Parker uses speed and is busy, I think he might even ko Hunter, who for me looks unorganised at times after throwing

    Good post, I agree. Parker took shots off Whyte that would've stopped others at the top, I seen Parker wince and struggle, but he got through it to comeback strong, Whyte was so lucky the ending come when it did

    Whyte was so clumsy and so top heavy for that fight. Parker was lean, on his toes and quick. A bit like the heavyweights of old.

    Heavies these days rely too much on being top heavy. Easy targets for the smaller, quicker hands. Plus Parker can bang.

    Leapai trainer Noel Thornberry is doing his best to put a positive spin on his fighter
    chance backing his fighter's huge right uppercut to cause an upset. '' He in good shape .
    He been sparring the likes of Demsey Mckean ( Aust HW Champ ) and Willie Nasio.
    So he ready. We going for a quick ko. Alex has a chance against anyone. "

    I guess he won't be fighting Demsey McKean ever then? I t would be a good step up fight for McKean to see what level he is at.
