    So your sole argument us one day Parker will be able to beat Usyk due to the gulf in age? Lol. I mean we could argue the same thing for David Price vs Lennox Lewis.

    Getting excited after fighting Chisora is jumping the gun a bit....very average lot of Heavyweights around at the moment but he has no hope against Usyk...

    You know, they said Usyk was too small for AJ once...

    Parker also knocked down Chisora 3 times, something Usyk never did.

    My personal opinion is that Usyk wins a UD, as he's simply that good. If Parker improves vastly under Andy Lee then I'd give him a punchers chance at a late stoppage once Usyk fatigues.

    If Lennox Lewis was 75 and David Price was 25 I would still pick Lennox Lewis. A 25 year old Price could beat a 100 year old Lennox Lewis though.

    Nothing has changed. Since the only wrinkle the "new" Parker has added, was an uppercut, that he should have realized was there for him the first time around. If it took him two tries to unlock the riddle of Chisora..... he would NEVER be able to unlock the riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma that is the Dancing Cat Of Ukraine, even if he had infinite number of tries to accomplish it.

    So yeah....... still Usyk.o_O

    I think you're missing the irony.

    lmfao Parker couldn't even finish granddad shot Chisora. Usyk would beat him worse than bodybuilder.

    I have Pricey getting the win in late-2070 when a 105yr old Lewis is outpointed by a spritely 87 year old Price.

    Parkers ring IQ is not very great while Usyks is top tier. That alone leaves Parker at a great disadvantage. Coupling that with Usyks' legendary stamina and exceptional skill level it does not bode well for Joseph if they should meet.

    Because he turned the Chisora corner he is now ready for Usyk?

    Sorry, no.

    OK - answer me this then:

    Which of today's HW's (apart from Fury) actually have a better chance than Parker of troubling Usyk?
