He is a good prospect but unfortunately for him his career is running parallel with Joshua. They will clash one day and that will be as far as he will go.
Tua was never stopped, (Am's don't count for ****, especially when you are 19>) Tua had the best in the business, especially when you consider he was short with T Rex arm's and had a get hit to hit style developed because of his physical short comings. Joe can take a punch but he also has more physical tool's like greater size, speed and mobility. He doesn't hit anywhere near as hard as Tua I don't think but he hits plenty hard enough
No, like all Kiwis he's all power and no defense. He'll get exposed when he steps up. Arreola can knock him out in 3.
Parker has about 1/10 the talent an old Tua has. Tua against Ustinov looked better than anything I've seen from Parker so far.
Please. Parker is already showing things that Tua even at his best was incapable of in his prime. Not saying that Parker at this stage is better than a prime Tua, but he's shown some things that Tua couldn't do. So that's quite a silly post. I believe Parker will prove himself to be better than Tua, he's going to become the first ever Polynesian HW champ. :good
Arreola looked terrible in his last fight against an unheralded fighter. Parker outboxes, and KO's him. He's one of the more promising HW prospects at the moment, silly to overlook him. He can patch up the defensive holes he has in time. Silly reason to doubt his potential.
