That was the Joey 12 days, Hughie the Skirt Fury took him 12, War Chisora pushed him close over 12, Junior Fa was taking him the full 12 rounds not to mention that even Joshua beat him on points during what was a very poor period for Parker. Once Joyce obliterated Joey 12, he came back a better fighter, losing the fear of being KTFO and letting the hands go.
Let's not go overboard beale and lets get the facts right. He let his hands go against Joyce. It wasn't after that. He lost in spite of letting his hands go to the better boxer. Joyce obliterated him. He came back and done much of the same. He looked crap against Jack Massey a cruiserweight who was obliterated by Opetaia and he beat Wilder and Zhang on the backfoot barely throwing a punch. So lets get the facts right Beale
His excellency won't be coughing up the big bucks for much longer if these are the type of fights left to be made( and then what becomes of boxing) . No wonder he's already calling Fury to beg him to reconsider his retirement.
Joey 12 beat a shell called Wilder but he done well to beat Big Bang considering what he done to Joyce twice. Bit like the legend known on here as Ex Army Jim, I think he is more offensive than he has been in the past.
Sounds like making stories to fit your narrative. Good job. I'm not even claiming Whyte was amazing just that he was one of the top contenders at one point in time.
Making stories - all the info. is available on boxrec and youtube if you think I am making anything up. Dullian Shyte was his name on here for a good reason.
I think Parker was more offensive against Joyce but not against Massey, Zhang, or Wilder. This Jim character sounds a bit of a ***** from what I've read, glad hes banned
Yes Ex Army Jim was banned and he always went out on his shield. Enjoyed a few tins on fight nights and a big Joe Joyce fan. Not even a comma or full stop could interrupt his posts when he was in full flow. What a character and the banter was world class at times.
Lofty praise that is Beale. I retract my last comment, sounds like a character and a good laugh. I wonder why he's so hated. One could only hope he's still out there somewhere reading your praise. Great stuff.
