Parker vs all Foreman`s opponents from `87 onwards how would he have fared?

I think he beats everyone except Holyfield, Moorer and briggs

 

Old foreman would of ****ed up whyte!!

don’t forget old foreman had a really good defence still had his power and could take a hell of a shot, foreman ko within 8.

 

Foreman beats Whyte no doubt about it. George had a higher ring iq.

As for Parker he would have lost to Holyfield, Moorer, possibly Briggs, and possibly Morrison.

 

I just don't buy the Joseph Parker thing at all.

Shawndell Winters, Alex Leapai, Razvan Cojanu, Alexander Flores and Hughie Fury would've been on Foreman's bum of the month tour. And Parker didn't look good against any of them except Flores.

Against Foreman's opposition in the 80s and 90s, I think Parker struggles and loses quite a bit. Because Parker hasn't exactly been steamrolling the nobodies he's fought for the past four years.

I could see the Briggs, Savarese and Axel Shulz who Foreman fought all beating Parker.

Parker basically is Lou Savarese. (LOL)

Holyfield stops Parker. Moorer stops Parker. So does Morrison. (Morrison ran from George all night because of George's power. Morrison wouldn't run from Parker. And Morrison wins a shootout with Joseph. Parker isn't a big banger.)

Pierre Coetzer would be a 50-50 fight. So would the Alex Stewart fight.

Bert Cooper would be a tough out. Certainly tougher than guys like Alex Leapai, who Parker has been fighting.

Hell, Dwight Qawi might steal a decision against Parker. I don't see Parker stopping him.

So, I'd say Parker gets stopped three times (Holyfield, Moorer, Morrison), I'd pick him to lose three decisions (Briggs, Savarese, Shulz) and it's a toss-up when he fights Coetzer, Stewart, Cooper and Qawi.

Parker could realistically have 10 losses against Foreman's later comp. But I'd say he edges Cooper and Qawi. So EIGHT Losses.

 

Not to mention Big George had a helluva uppercut. (LOL)

 

Some still rating Parker are they lol

 

There weren't a whole lot of flush punches landed in that Parker-Joshua fight. It was more like a sparring session, to the point that when Parker actually landed a shot, Joshua called time out and got it (LOL).

Parker seems like a nice guy. To me, he's just "A GUY" though. When he went 12 with Cojanu and Hughie, and arguably lost to Hughie, the red flags went up for me.

Seems like he won a lot of people over with the Takam decision. But that was close, too, and a long time ago now.

The last guy he fought this year, Winters, just got blown out by a guy with three wins.

Parker just doesn't seem to win in a dominant fashion ever. Maybe that will change. But based off what I've seen to date, he's just "a guy" to me.

 

How do you rate Razvan Cojanu and Alex Leapai?

 

I was going to say that won't age well, but it already hasn't. Again, Parker didn't beat him convincingly, either.

We're comparing a guy (Parker) who is 28 with a guy (Foreman) who was 48 when he was fighting guys like Shannon Briggs.

And I'd take the Briggs who Foreman fought over Ruiz and Parker. That Briggs wasn't a muscle-bound stalker. He could actually box.

Parker could easily be 25-4. He's not a dominant heavyweight at all. And he's supposed to be in his prime right now.
