    Parker was landing the better shots, Takam was inactive and he didn't have as much quality in his work, he made it tough but didn't do enough to pull a win here, even a draw would be eyebrow raising.

    True, Joshua hits so hard even a good chin won't save you if you get caught.

    Parker needs to learn to move better, he holds his feet too often, circles to his left most of the time when at distance which is predictable and needs to improve his stamina.

    Also needs to learn how to clinch more effectively. He looks great when he gets his shots off first but when his opponent is aggressive and pushing the pace he needs to be able to shut them down with movement or clinching.

    Oh I agree, Haye does love talking cobblers a lot of the time but he spoken very highly of Takam.

    Dead right. Takam is a world-class fighter ffs.

    I had to laugh at the poster who said Parker dosen't have the power to trouble Fury, Wilder or Aj... Fury was dropped hard by Cunningham and both Wilder and AJ have proven they can be rocked in headgear.

    I think Parker makes it competitive against all 3 mentioned

    How the hell you score rounds is beyond me!
    Seriously. Activity? Landing the cleaner shots? Landing more shots? Controlled much of the fight and hurt Takam on numerous occasions.

    Takam fought a great fight. His chin held up well, he fought every round. Had great stamina and kept the pressure on.

    He was inactive for large portions of the rounds, and his punches had very little on them. Parker was throwing with more intentions.

    Parker needs to have better footwork to beat Joshua. He has disadvantages in reach and height.

    Takam was starting so wide and looping his right hand like he was trying to get it into orbit.
    As soon as Parker faces someone who can get power on short punches, he's in trouble. He'll improve though of course.
