Deontay Leshun Wilder vs. Joseph Dennis Parker Lupesoliai

I'm going with Wilder wins by knockout.
If Wilder wins, I'm not sure that would be enough for another title shot.
If Parker wins, Wilder can retire, and boxing history will remember him badly.

 

You need a choice for "Fight never happens".

Looks to me like Wilder is going to duck this fight by way of complaining that the fight's order on the card dis-respects him.

 

You finished on Wilders nob yet?

 

No argument, so you mention male genitalia instead.

 

I will take Parker for the upset.

 

Wilder's chin is bad and he can't box a lick. He does have a big straight right hand but that is it. Without question one of the biggest hearts in boxing.

Parker's chin might be cracked and if he fights the wrong fight (being tentative), not only will the fight suck but Parker most likely fights to survive and we get a decision. Parker needs to do what Fury did and force Wilder on his backfoot where his power isn't as effective. I do believe if Parker's chin is still there, it's miles better than Fury's. So in other words, I think he could at least eat some right hands without going to sleep.

My guess is we don't get an aggressive Parker who will force Wilder back and more likely a Parker who goes into survive and we get a bad fight in which Wilder wins a clear cut decision. I hope I'm wrong, I do believe Parker can pull it off with the right gameplan. Parker will sadly be Wilder's best win.

 

Parker by stoppage?!
Wins 33
Wins by KO 23 Parker only fights in spurs, he doesn`t have the work rate to stop Wilder.

 

Wilder hits harder than Joyce.

 

In a mild upset I got Parker

 

I still dont buy that Wilder is a good fighter. He has an elite straight right and nothing else. Good heart I guess too. But he's beaten Ortiz twice and nothing but fringe contenders otherwise.

I get why its easy to pick Wilder but I think Parker can do it. I also have serious questions about Wilder's chin now

 

Wilder gassed v Fury because Fury kept putting all his weight o him, he kept grabbing him in head locks.

 

I hate picking Wilder but Parker doesn't have that it factor and it looks like his chin's been cracked. He's also markedly slower than he was back in his heyday, plus stylistically he's never been hard to hit with that upright chin in the air style.

If I have to pick a way this fight goes down Parker tries to be aggressive early, gets clipped with a right hand counter and goes down. Fight is waved off shortly after.

 

Wilder by early stoppage. While Parker is a good fighter, I've seen little from him to indicate that he has any chance of avoiding Wilder's right, and once it connects it'll be game over.

 

Huh?

Ortiz is a fringe contender at best, with a worse resume than plenty of undisputed journeymen (Chisora, for example).

The rest are mostly gatekeeper level fighters or worse.

And I'm being generous to Ortiz by not counting him the same.
