    Wouldn't shock me at all if Takam exposed him, Parker is taking a big risk, he is definitely the underdog being so unproven, this is a big step up.

    I do think people see Parker's speed and athleticism and overrate him much like people see Joshua's physique and overrate him.

    Parker so far has only fought one way, being the aggressor and leading, he doesn't really counter, he always looks to get off first. Would be interesting to see him countered when he loads up or pushed back to see if he can adapt and box.

    You can' t compare Povetkin and Parker,Povetkin would pummel Parker hard.

    He can't be better,his amateur pedigree is worse than Povetkin's,plenty of losses too.And in pro's Parker has beaten avarege boxers.

    I rate Parker but he isn't no world beater,look up his fight against Heredia in amateurs with no headgear.Alakhardiev beat him up in amateurs with no headgear also.And there are even more bad losses on his record.

    I'm not overly sold on Parker yet but he can prove me wrong here.

    Great fight!

    I think Takam is the best stamina fighter out of him Jennings and Chisora.

    Sure Parker has the speed and power to knock him out, but can he keep it up late if Takam gets past the opening rounds?

    Takam is a huge step up for Joseph but lets be honest he's still not very good.

    Dillian Whyte would bang Takam out in a few rounds

    Whyte is nowhere near the level of Takam... Takam UD's him easily or stops him late.
