While Parker (24-0, 18 KOs) is a big underdog in the fight, WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder recently explained that he has a legit shot at victory. "He has a 100 percent chance of winning. He has to be smart and stick to the game plan," Wilder said. "In this ring it's not about how much a person weighs, or about how big a person's muscles is - it's about heart, that dog that he's going to bring to the fight. The mind is powerful ... speak it, believe it, receive it." Speaking to Trackside Radio, Parker's trainer Kevin Barry said Wilder has meant a lot to the 26-year-old WBO champion. "We have a relationship with Deontay. We were sending him messages during the week, he actually sent a couple of messages to us," Barry told Trackside Radio. "He wants to hang with us in Cardiff so there is good mutual respect there. He is an experienced guy and he knows it is all about following a game plan and it was good for us to hear him say that." Shut it down. A Parker motivated by the power of Deontay's words is simply unstoppable. AJ doesn't stand a chance.
