    . . . .and tried to be objective. From what I see I believe that Parker is the most naturally gifted and technically prepared. Of the four he is the smallest but he is the quickest and I believe that he can use his talents to ascend to the top of the list as a unified heavyweight champion. That would be a big accomplishment nonetheless.

    Parker is smaller and therefore faster. That means he's naturally more gifted? That's ludicrous.

    Joshua would destroy Parker
    Wlad would destroy Parker
    Wilder would destroy Wilder
    Fury would completely outbox Parker

    Parker is not bigger or stronger however is more technically sound, boxing smarter and faster than the others which gives him an edge.

    No chance. Parker has already found his level.

    Parker has no edge over any of them. Joshua would absolutely flatten him, as would Wilder and Klitschko. He looked poor in his last fight, i know he didnt have to do much to win but he looked poor.

    Parker has lost his fair share of rounds to fairly poor opponents and his knockout power seems to be a myth it hasn't carried any weight at all above domestic level that big Romanian plodder took Parker best shots and laughed in his face on Saturday , he's not capable of outboxing any of them except possibly Wilder and he'd be lucky to stop any of them , I'd actually slightly favour Hughie Fury over him at the moment, even if he can overcome Fury I think he should be looking at a Whyte Bellew Pulev Stiverne
    before he even thinks about getting in with the top guys.

    Fair views from everyone I guess. Man I aint gonna lie, I wanted a knockout but as a Parker fan I did appreciate the win. The boxing skills on display were good but there wasnt much improvement from Parker, especially defensively.

    Cojanu who sparred many rounds with Joe only went in there to survive. Despite Cojanus familiarity with Joe, I still expected Joe to break him down and drop him. In hindsight, it was a dumb but safe move from Team Parker to pick Cojanu as a last minute replacement for Hughie Fury.

    My new rankings would go like this...
    1. Joshua
    2. Klitschko
    3. Parker
    4. Wilder
    I still back my boy to beat Wilder but as I mentioned, Im a huge loyal Parker fan so it is bias :)
