Yeah, I always find some comments rather suspect, like the old "he looks soft and dry" Which always leave me thinking "did you want him looking hard and wet" It's just not got a good sound to it.
He's borderline top 10 as of now which isn't saying anything as it's weak as **** outside the top 5 which I've said all along. Having said that he beat a overweight, 38 yo who had fought 2 rounds in 2 years so that'll be a great win in your world. Your obsession with trying to make Whyte into a bonafide threat to enhance Joshua's victory over him is very pathetic. Whyte shouldn't be in any top 10, but the division is weak outside of Povetkin, Wilder, Joshua, Ortiz and Parker.....all the above fighters slaughter Whyte.
I saw Usyk fight Joyce. Joyce is 6 feet 6 inches tall, Usyk is only 6 foot 3 inches tall, yet it was no contest, Usyk easily boxing circles around him..................this was in a superheavyweight fight! Parker will probably lose to Joshua, he is much smaller, but if he were to box like Usyk, he could win..................but who can box like Usyk?
LMAO But regardless of how Holy swallowed Tysons soul in their staredown, all the rest had to change their drawers. But yeah, tough look and ish talk won't punk an ol man on the train
The impression i got from yesterday's press conference is that both AJ and JP are tired of looking at each other and are ready to square off.
Parker wasn't intimidated at all. But stare downs don't mean **** anyway. I don't understand why anyone would take that stuff seriously Look at it this way : If you knew Mike Tyson (or Sonny LIston, AJ, Foreman, whoever) wasn't going to ever fight or hit you, you'd be equal with them in a staredown, so you have no reason to "lose" the staredown. Children play that game all the time. And if you ARE already signed to fight them for real, what the hell difference would a staredown make ? If you're confident fighter, being stared at isn't going to make any difference at all. Not at all.
And seeing as 'fight' or 'flight' are the two basic reactions to fear, a successful stare-down could provoke either reaction. 'Losing' a stare-down could bring the fight out in a boxer....
Joe has a window of opportunity to make that point on Saturday night. At this point in time, though, the consensus view is that Wilder is the danger man for Joshua.
AJ looked scared. Utterly shook. When a man does something totally different in a face off to all the others he has had up tp that point, don't see it as a positive. Parker by late KO.
Haha we are on such a similar wavelength. Something I've definitely noticed about especially many UK fans, seem to get all psychoanalytical when they look at interviews, conversations and face offs and decide they know who is going to win based off them. So so weird, especially when they almost always seem to decide that the away fighter is scared. I can imagine it, an "anything goes" fight gets called between Hughie Fury and a xenomorph. Cue the face-off, and Brits all over facebook and BF24 "Oh did you see the way the alien poked it's tongue mouth at Hughie? It doesn't want any part of him, Hughie KO3".
