    Duco got people's attention and then told them what they wanted them to hear. Unconventional but effective.

    Poor video to be fair, I've already seen everything in it.

    I guess it's aimed at casual fans, but from the previous press release I assume there was unseen footage!

    Joshua will knock Wilder out, but Wilder will never fight Joshua!

    Disappointed in the video since I believe they said there's be unseen sparring footage in it. Didn't see any sparring footage whatsoever. Just a load of stuff that's freely available to anyone on youtube if they bother to do a bit of research.

    It's in bad taste but I'm sure they have their reasons for it. I just hope they know what they're doing because IMO, this makes Parker look like a bad guy.

    I think it was more Higgins than Parker. Though you're right it does paint Parker as the bad guy for the casuals which isn't really what I would want for Parker as Parker to me seems like one of the good guys in this sport.

    Parker's biggest weakness I think is the people around him, they hold him back. With a stronger promotional outfit and a better trainer I think Parker would of been a much better fighter and a bigger threat to Joshua.

    Classless, corny and comes across as desperate, A classy guy would acknowledge anything can happen in sparring in the HW division. Not a good look for paker at all imo, I can see how they would think it would add fuel to getting the fight made tho but at the cost of selling your own dignity a little bit short in the process.

    I'd say it def makes Higgins look like a coked up chancer but then again he does that regularly anyway. As for making Parker look bad I think it's more a case of making him look overly loyal to people obviously woefully out of the depth and whilst loyalty is usually a trait that's admired it can come from naivety and sadly I think this is such a time.

    FWIW I like Parker and would like to see him clean house at heavyweight but just can't see him doing it.

    It's up there with that cringeworthy Jeff Horn video begging for the Pacquaio fight.

    Super-ior man. Like superman but ya know, part of the 'superior' 'race'.

    God, AJ is just as stupid as Fury. Tyson just takes his information from evangelical nutjobs rather than the Nation of Islam!

    Genuinely amazed - in addition to being saddened - that race continues to make up such a large part of so many individuals identities in 2017.
