    This is not a good idea, especially against bigger punchers where it's more important to be mobile.

    If true... Interesting.

    If it harms his speed and stamina... Well, it could go downhill faster than you can say "Joe Joyce"

    I hope this is just a silly rumour. This is a bad idea.

    Why?
    Parkers star has shone brighter recently at 245 -247 pounds, if it ain't broken then why try to mend it.

    Andy Ruiz wishes he could get this kind of writeup when he bulks up.

    I always thought Parker was big enough, not sure why his team feels it’s necessary to bulk up…..

    Parker best asset is his movement. Horrible idea if true.

    I don't get this persistent desire for heavyweights to think bigger is better, he was in better shape in his recent performances, being bigger didn't help him against Joyce. If anything this makes me more concerned, boxing is boxing not bodybuilding or strongman.

    The article references 7000 calories a day. Ruiz does that in cerveza!

    I don’t think the added bulk will hurt, so long as it’s done right and he retains most of his speed and movement. He’s 6’4”. Plenty of area for that weight to spread.
