    He has got a narrow win over Ruiz, against narrow losses to Joshua and Whyte. It seems that what we are seeing is that this is a very tight division in which anyone can win on the right night.

    Should definitely put things into perspective. Remember when Parker fought AJ the ref separated things whenever they got in range where Parker would be able to get clean shots off, if the same ref officiated this fight then it would have gone very much the same as Parker vs AJ

    To a degree yes although I had Ruiz winning that fight.

    I reckon Parker edged it or maybe a draw BUT still - Who looked better against Ruiz?

    Parker's stock just went right up.
