    It’s a fight between two losers on the decline.

    I wouldn’t be shocked if Jennings edges this one in a tactical, dirty fight.

    Parker has the look of a man who is fading fast.

    It couldn't possibly be any worse than Parker vs Cojanu or Parker vs Fury. :lol:

    Great news. Good to see Parker isn't resting on his laurels and just sitting back and blowing the fortune the Joshua fight bought him. He's quickly back to work and at a good level too, this isn't an easy first fight back. Hopefully he hasn't made the same mistake Jennings did when he chose to come back vs Ortiz and is trying too hard to impress.

    This fight isn't a foregone conclusion. Parker has struggled at times against Takam, Ruiz and Fury. Jennings may not be as good as the Wlad performance suggested but he he's a solid fighter. I'm favouring Parker to win a decision but I don't think it will be an easy win, Parker has some real style flaws that need to be addressed and will likely always be pushed by any good opponent until he fixes these flaws.

    Fair fight, Parker should handle Jennings but with the American is solid enought to make it a bit of a fight. Im glad Parker has found a fight in the US or the UK where you seem to get bigger exposure. I like Parker i hope after he lost his belt he didnt begin to sort of fade in to the back grounds like weve seen from ex champs before.

    Good fight for Parker, Jennings is a good heavyweight, but Parker is better. I have to pick Parker by knockout!!!

    Awesome fight! Anyone complaining about this fight is not a true fan. Jennings was a top 5 hw when he lost to Ortiz. Parker is a top 5 hw now. Both are in their prime years. You look at boxrec scheduled fights and it's an absolute barren wasteland. No other top 50 hw against another top 50 hw.

    This is a great fight, close to 50/50, slight edge to Parker. The winner will be right back in contention.

    Jennings when on form, throws punches in bunches and has good stamina. It will be a tough, hard fought UD for either man.

    Parker needs to make a statement in this fight. He's better than Jennings, but needs a stoppage if he wants to convince people. I think his negative style is holding him back.
