    It's what Parker himself said you dumb little donkey.

    You're making a mess of yourself in this thread. I suggest you quietly sneak out the back door and pretend this never happened.

    If Parker was unimpressed by Joshua’s power why didn’t he come forward in the fight, why box going backwards for the whole 12 rounds and why tuck up inside whenever they got close enough for infighting which was supposed to be where Parker would have the advantage?

    No need for anyone to sneak out the back, but plenty of Usyk lovers and Joshua haters need a reality check

    This is AJ against Carlos Takam:

    Watch the 6th, 7th and 8th rounds. Joshua doesn't seem to have the power to KO Takam cleanly, despite Takam literally walking into punches whilst trading / exchanging with AJ. So this myth about Takam being in survival mode is just that, a myth.

    Usyk, unlike Takam, is significantly more skilled offensively. So not only can Usyk take AJ's punches like Takam, but land far more punches as well.

    38 year old Takam was relatively unimpressed with AJ's power. Prime Usyk would be even less impressed.

    If Usyk had a punch, I would say that Usyk will easily win KO, of course Usuk was amazing in last fight, but i have to notice that Gassiev is a "client" of Usyk. He did nothing except standing behind the block and waiting for puncher's chance. His strategy was simple, and Usyk read it after the second round, what exactly Gassiev did during the fight , only two things: the first he was behind the block, and secondly, he was trying to catch up with Usik in a straight line. But with other boxers in cruiserweight, Gassiev has a good chances.

    And if we talk about fight with Joshua, i'm not sure that Usyk will cope with Joshua's size and reach, in the cruiserweight Usyk usually was at least same size as his opponents

    That was an overweight Joahsu at 255lb who fought Takam on a weeks notice and with a broken nose afther the seconf rpund.

    Lennox Lewis at the same weight was in the worst shape of his career . Keep reaching for the straws

    Watch the fight again. Parker isn't very skilled with his footwork though whenever he did try and work on the inside and trade with Joshua, the ref warned him and gave Joshua free reign to hold and smother Parker's work on the inside.

    Ask most boxing purists what they think of the fight, and they will mostly agree the referee spoiled the fight through being a mother figure, overly protecting AJ every time Joseph breathed within his space.

    You need to ask yourself why Joshua was so reluctant to throw his favorite right hand power punch all night and instead content to work behind the jab.

    If he was so powerful why didn't he stand in front of parker and throw bombs ? Why didn't do what you concocted up in your head, and blow him away in 5 rounds as you predicted he would do to Usyk who is actually a superior fighter on all fronts to parker?

    He could possibly get by Joshua....certainly Bellew would be an easy win. Maybe Parker as well as he doesn't impress me.

    But Wilder? Wilder walks him down, swatting away the jabs and occasional left and ko's him.

    And Fury, even though I despise him, won't have any problems with him. Too massive and Fury does have some speed when he's not fat as a pig.

    Usyk should go the easy route...Bellew, then step up to Parker, then try to avoid a ko vs Joshua, then the ride ends against Wilder or Fury.

    Keep making excuses! Takam was a 37 year old, washed up man already brutally KO'ed by a blown up, fat light heavyweight in Povetkin. Takam took multiple of Joshua's best punches whilst moving forward, no problem.

    No amount of weight is going to help Joshua be effective against Usyk, unless there exists a miracle and an astronomical change in a very short time.

    What excuse does AJ have of failing to even drop Denis Bakhtov who was brutally stopped in 1 round and being dropped thrice in the prcoess by Evgeny Romanov, who is literally a 6 foot 0 midget and smaller than Usyk? LMFAO. I'd like to see you escape out of this one. Wonder what's your next excuse? AJ was green? So was Romanov, who fought Bakhtov after the same number of fights.

    Takam and Bakhtov exposed Joshua's power as lacking and near feather fisted at the elite level. Two guys who aren't even elite boxers to begin with.

    Joshua isn't even going to land half the punches he landed on those two clowns.

    Parker was the icing on the cake to sum up how disgustingly overrated AJ's power is.

    0 concussive knockouts out of 21 fights tell us just how pathetic and non-existent Joshua's concussive power is. Lol.

    But yeh, keep making excuses for AJ. LMFAO.

    But weight DOE. But heavier doe. But overweight DOE. But nose block DOE. But green DOE. Typical reproaches / excuses!

    Takam was riding on his bicycle enjoying the sun, a fortnight prior to fighting AJ. He didn't even train for your boy.

    Joshua had a complete camp as he was preparing to fight Pulev.

    He should have blasted takum out within a few rounds, if he was this powerful puncher, but we know he's not.

    You contend that the Ref protected and favoured Joshua but Joshua was getting the better of almost every inside exchange so how does the Ref preventing infighting favour Joshua?

    I’d agree with most fight fans that the ref was awful and pretty much ruined the fight but he was picked by Parker’s team so how is his performance in any way Joshua’s fault.

    Parker was on the back foot throughout the majority of the fight, as Parker himself found out when he fought Hughes Fury, it’s very hard to land powershots on someone constantly in reverse.

    My prediction for Usyk has no bearing on the Parker fight they’re different styles of fights and while Usyk doesn’t have Parker’s strength he is a much better boxer than Parker.

    The referee assessed what was occurring and obviously whenever he witnessed Parker about to hurt Joshua he would break it up.

    Joshua didn't want much work on the inside since he was doing more holding throughout the fight.

    I've covered this fight before and video stamped the moments when the ref stopped the action as soon as it looked like Parker was about to hurt his boy.

    The whole fight and event was a farce. Even more ardent sycophant AJ supporting friend, was sickened by the whole thing and admitted he had the ref was one of Hearn's men.
