    I appreciate his ability, but hard for me to like fighters with no fire.

    But he obviously is one of the major players at heavyweight and will be interesting to see what happens. Many good fights for him.

    Seeing as though he got a bogus decision and Ruiz is twice the fighter now, he looks no better.

    I criticize his lack of desire. He doesn't owe anyone to get hurt, but in a fight of that magnitude you have to try to win. I don't think he did that against Joshua.

    No. Ruiz has progressed since that fight and Parker is, well Parker.

    I scored Joshua/Parker a Draw, very vocal about it. Go Parker, bring it! Hope he rematches Ruiz and beats him to take the titles.

    He outscored Ruiz on compubox and to the naked eye landed more,i had him winning 8-4,so yes his stock has risen and i believe he would beat Ruiz again

    Parker lost to Joshua but honestly...I watched that fight start to finish recently and Joshua hardly landed a clean shot in 12 rounds. Both men were responsible for a **** fight. Joshua doesn’t get to win 11-1 just for turning up

    Also Parker beat Ruiz 7-5, it might’ve been 6-6, the robbery stuff is complete dog****

    Exactly.

    I thought Parker won at least 3 or 4 rounds against Joshua and a couple others were even. ..... despite the referee not allowing them to fight.
    Parker was screwed even worse against Whyte and anyone can see that.

    Always thought Parker was good.

    Beats Whyte in a rematch.
