Parker weighing in at 267 lbs

Weight doesn’t give you power

 

im very interested in seeing how Bakole goes about this. Does he fight at a measured pace, looking for openings here and there? Or just go for broke right from the start and try to end it within a few rounds? Interesting position he’s in.

 

I'm surprised at how good Parker looked at 267lbs, he's carrying a little belly fat but it's clear most of the extra weight is muscle, but muscle requires more energy to sustain it than fat, I hope he hasn't neglected cardio while packing the weight on. But with Bakole coming in the size of a house and not having a big gas tank even when in fighting shape I guess Bakole isn't the opponent to test whether Parker can go 12 hard rounds.

 

yeah he’s surprisingly not very fat for being 267 at 6’4”. Much leaner than Fury was at that weight against Usyk the first time.

 

not a good idea.... parker had enough power at 240 to keep zhang honest. hes not a natural big puncher i dont think this added weight will have him magically start sleeping guys. hes just gonna be slower, easier to hit, and gas out faster

 

Every time a heavyweight gains a pound, an angel has its wings ripped off. Is the saying.

 

Shut up, Grammarly. I understand sentence structure.

 

I hate this for Parker

However, I’ve been saying for years that Parker is a much bigger guy than he’s made out to be. He’s leaner at 267 than Fury is….does that not indicate his lean mass is actually more than Fury? Likewise, AJ would have to look like a roid freak to weigh 267. Parker looks normal. So who’s actually bigger? Parker is a thicc Samoan boi

 

If it brings out the "David Tua" in him

I'm all for it

 

It can when properly leveraged and gained.

 

I reckon go for broke. I think he only has 3 rounds in him.

 

Parker will be fine, he is finally at his "natural" weight as a heavyweight boxer, imagine if prime Tua was his height, he'd easily weigh more than Parker does now.

He looks the same as always, just his muscles are a bit bigger, he has always carried a bit of extra fat, but he hasn't gottten any fatter. If he shaved his body and got a tan he would look quite a bit leaner.

 

You mean from less than 210 to over 230

 

Bakole just weighed 315 lbs with clothes on.

He's 305 lbs plus then, crazy

 

AJ has way more lean mass than Parker. Parker is over 20% bodyfat.
