Parkers Promoter Wants Wilder In April

I had Ruiz the victor.

 

Of course you did.

 

Wilder needs to take this

 

They should make the fight April 1st get everyone reved up then give a last minute surprise of a fight simulation generatted on a computer monitor and say the fight is another month away .

Im tillting toward Wilder here ,Parker is very hittable and against a longer busier fighter with a punch he has little error for mistakes , i think Wilder can stay away and control this fight ,both have defense issues but Parkers jab doesnt work as well because he throws it awkard narrow stance head straight up . IF his trainer is smart they will work on knocking Wilder off balance and thats easily done by hitting him with lunging body shot Jabs or to chest area , he will not win this fight going backwards like Ruiz fight .

 

Lunging body shot jabs?? LOL never boxed talk right here.

Damn straight they won't. The Ruiz fight strategy was no doubt put together for the Ruiz / Parker dynamic to work against a no doubt very solid strategy worked on with Sanchez.

If Wilder came in expecting exactly the same game plan it could end up an early night for him.

While Parker didn't put on an amazing show against Ruiz he did do something quite different, fought an entire fight on the back foot which everyone has said he can't do - stuck to the game plan fighting a very disciplined fight, and when everyone was saying he gases he looked like he had plenty in the tank at the end. He threw 560+ punches in the fight which isn't especially low output, either - over 100 more than Ruiz.

If anything, while Parker has seemed to have gone down in a lot of people's estimations he actually showed a quote different look to what was expected and the plan was obviously one which gambled on losing rounds at the start to win the fight late playing a safe game.

He is still growing and clearly working towards not being a one trick pony, he has a hell of a chin, a lot of power and a lot of things Wilder hasn't faced before. I'm not saying Parker should be the favourite but it would be folly to underestimate him- love or hate the way the Ruiz fight went, he won fair and square and showed you can't assume you know what is coming next.

Arum intends to have him fight in the States in March/April.... he will no doubt be very fresh and have learnt even more from after the Ruiz fight. Here's hoping people are underestimating him.

 

Very well written. The trouble with constructing a summation like this to such a high caliber, you often find the next comment saying "_______ is a bum."

 

Parker lost and will lose to someone better in worst fashion than to Ruiz jr

 

No, incorrect. He fought the entire Takam fight on the back foot and i fully expected him to do the same against Ruiz because he is no good if the pressure is on him.
He's lucky Ruiz was a flat blob with cement boots and terrible conditioning. That way he was able to stay one foot ahead and Ruiz was still able to get to him in every round and only lost the fight by the skin of his teeth. I thought he nicked it.
I had Takam beating Parker too until he switched off and allowed Parker come back into it. He switched it back on again in the 12th and sweeped that round which tells me he would have dominated Parker if he was younger and more up for it like he was in the Thopmson fight.
Even Parker said he was useless against Takam. Well , he was useless against Ruiz too.

If he comes forward against Wiler , Wilder will beat him on the back foot with superior hand speed, foot speed , power and length. If Parker tries to draw him on , Wilder wins the same way.

 

Bigger money fighting Ruiz in Oz with HBO WCB money than taking a 25% mandatory take.
Now that he holds a title just like Joshua does, he's got bargaining power when it comes to the unification

 

Well like i stated the above ,if they work on lunging ,push punching lowering body jabs to to torso/chest to knock him off balance that would make him reset and or create opportunity for Parker to work on inside when Wilder backs up bc Wilder tends to fight going back . Im not sure why no trainer cant see this? Arreola had some success with it but looked like shyte the entire fight . If they used that blue print set up of in and out shots dictating with the stiff body jabs from mid range i favor Parker if he can utilise combos and get in close quickly and repeat he would possibly get the k.o,but im not seeing Parker put together everything yet where he should be .

 

That's exactly what I would want Parker's strategy to be. He can't win backing up like Takam/Ruiz fights.

 

What i described above would cut down on Wilders moving ,thats his biggest weapon ,if you limit that and make him fight in straight line going back wards hes open to counter combos . Every fighter has followed him around the ring just looking for head shots but cant get to him without getting punished with Wilders speed and length. You knock him around first with stiff lunging lower body /mid body shots then go upstairs as you QUICKLY close distance so faster footwork is what Parker should be concentrated on more here bc he walks forward in slower steps .

 

It may well be the kind of thing he uses, too - we don't know yet as he hasn't faced him It would be a very interesting fight to see.
