    Good fight! Parker is a very good fighter and seems like a good dude. But Usyk’s skills are a level above Parker’s in my opinion and he gets the UD win here.

    Usyk UD

    I've said that for a while. Usyk doesn't hit hard enough to stop Parker, but he's too skilled to lose a decision, leaving Parker with merely a puncher's chance.

    Would Usyk hit the floor at some point or not?

    I feel Usyk UDs everybody at HW right now. Despite the range disadvantage I'm not convinced any of them have the jab, timing or movement to beat him from the outside, nor the skilled pressure or methodical footwork to cut off the ring, pin him against the ropes and make him feel the difference in power.

    But I am biased AF on this matter. Я люблю Усик.

    It's possible but if I have to guess, no.

    LOL @ "Mr Historian"!

    John Quincy Adams beat Thomas Jefferson 3 out of 4 times in the amateurs.

    Usyk wide UD.

    Too technical, too good on his feet and Parker isn't a big puncher so I can't even give him a punchers chance.

    A few people from the NZ and common opponents said Fa had more potential.

    He is quite athletic and quick for a big man.
    To me though he carries around to much weight and is sort of Jameel Mclinesque in terms of size to power ratio..like he should punch a bit harder considering.

    I thought he was poor in his fight with Tai and supposedly struggled in his last one. Fights Parker would not have had problems in.

    I think Barry has really maximised Parkers real but not exceptional potential. Really turned him into a consumate professional Maybe Fa could be something if he hooked up with a trainer who did the same.
