i dont even like haye .....but his right hand is devistating since he added more weight ....i can see him on the back foot and throwing that right hand aand really hurting parker and maybe put him away ...styles make fights ...just my opinion ...but then again parker has fought the better competition as of late and haye has fought cab drivers ...
Lol, I just thought it was funny you thought it was an easy first rd KO for Parker, especially when Parker rarely knock anybody out in the first rd... For somebody to say something like that usually means that they don't know anything about boxing. That's why I was curious how you came up with that since nothing indicates that that would happen?
Your opinion there, although I respect it, reminds me of casual betters on the Derby or the Grand National who put their hard earned £1 on the 200/1 shot who they believe has as much chance of winning the race as any other horse.
It can be difficult to understand for many that in the heavyweight division, one punch is all it takes. That one punch can happen anytime. Any boxer will tell you that.
Sure, but that isn't a logical path to take when analysing how a fight will develop. That just shows a lack of depth of thought IMO.
If only all our thought panned out in boxing. We would be rich men through gambling. Wed know everything. The only thing we do know is that its the heavyweight division and our deep considerations DOES NOT mean that its going to pan out that way. Betting agencies make millions because people take "logical analysis" of how a fight will develop and then so many get it wrong. All Im saying is thats its possible.
When Haye has everything going his way he looks good (at least he used to), but the fact is his best triumph at heavyweight is edging Valuev who a decomposing Holyfield arguably beat. There's that nice movement and heavy cross when he can line it up but how would he react to a guy with some aggression and talent? He was not prepared to fight Wladimir as promised. He has since built a reputation for fibbing. He is a muscle-deep fighter. He loves the stage, not the challenge. The Parker of today would have tried his best to make something work against Wladimir, whatever the result. He has that willingness to get stuck in. It can't be taught. If they manage to iron out those technical flaws he will prove a greater force at heavyweight than David Haye ever did. Forgetting the obvious money bonus, it's clear why Haye wants Joshua. His possum-like style of moving around, trying to walk you onto the right is a good antidote on paper. Joshua does tire after attacking and is not the hardest to clip. Parker however, though a bit leaky at times, works at a closer range and forces you to fight. Haye would not want that and at this stage I'd have to favour the active Kiwi over the inactive, musclebound 36-year-old.
