Parker weighing in at 267 lbs

Probably around 280 again. He has been actively training for the Ajagba fight.

And Parker height is 6ft3, check on celebheights
So he is as heavy as an old Foreman for the same height. Crazy
He is not going to hit like George anyway.
I believe that weight is overrated past 220

 

Wlad actually outweighed just over 50% his opponents (not actually a lot) it was the fact he was more muscular and physically imposing and was taller.

But yeah I agree. I think at some point we will see a trend of more Uysk sized guys but the average weight will likely still keeping going up.

 

Yeah that's possible
Some guy take massive amount of muscle with the age and proper training
Others not at all

 

Yeah Parker would get up at 5am 7 days a week and do a 10km and then work until failure in the boxing gym because he thought thats how boxers were supposed to train.

That with crap eating, and bad sleep and recovery habits means he hasn't built up the found he should have had his whole career. Thats why he can put on so much weight so quickly without if affecting his performance or stamina much.

 

Even cruiserweights today are likely stepping in the ring 205-210 pounds which is bigger than most the heavyweights in the past.

 

People in general are getting heavier.
I was shocked when I heard 267 but with proper training and diet it’s possible to change your composition and get heavier in the right way.
If the fight goes on long enough tomorrow we’ll find out.

 

He is approaching Andy Ruiz territory....and that's not a good place to be.

 

Awful strategy, he sacrifices his best attribute, speed.

 

Fat as hell.

 

Mobility rather than speed. And stamina of course. His hands will likely still be fast.

 

Higher weight = Less Speed / Stamina / Movement = More Toe to Toe exhanges = Parker getting knocked out. Bakole will knock him out in the middle rounds imo.

 

Nah just saw the weigh in. He looks in really good shape unlike Ruiz.

 

The moment he steps on the scales is @ the 56:44 mark below, for any1 who hasn't seen it:

Seems to wear the weight pretty well, but he doesn’t look as trim or well defined as when he was around 248
