    I'd definitely agree with this, it's been an issue he's had for a while and I'm not sure if they're working on it. In regards to not having a problem with Parker, maybe I misinterpreted this:

    Most people believe if Parker goes hard at AJ then he will get knock out early, I was assuming that is what you were implying here - and that you'd quite like that idea. Either I misinterpreted that (very easy to do on the internet!), or it looks like quite sour grapes.

    Oh I think I see what you were asking now, Did you think I was saying that Parker would get stopped early if he chased Joshua down? No, i was thinking either one could take a nap if they got into a brawling type of fight. If Parker's chin is as great as they say it is, then it stands to reason that he may come off on top in that case.

    RIGHT. Looks like we were posting at the same time, that's exactly what I took you to mean... ok, my bad. It all makes a lot more sense :)

    Yeah, one way or another it'd make for an exciting fight if they went that way... I'm not sure how much I do like Joe's chances if that do it that way - could be an interesting and very risky fire fight, and I'm not sure which way I'd enjoy the fight more :D Can't wait, hope both guys get a chance to show their best work.

    I really don't think so. Well, not beyond a normal healthy amount. There is a huge amount at stake and he is treating it very seriously, as he should.

    Really you could read it that his sparring partners haven't been giving him any challenges and that it's a bit scary that he is looking for tougher opponents. Any fighter who is looking for tougher sparring partners is clearly not struggling.
