    True, I was just saying that maybe people over rate Parker's chin. We will find out soon though!

    It totally depends on who can still stand up after getting hit cleanly by the other. Both fighters hit hard but who has greater chin than the other. Lets see! I lean to A.J since he's bigger than Parker.

    Chin is a 50/50, Parker hasnt been hit clean by a massive puncher, Joshua has, Joshua went down but he also took multiple shots just like the shot that dropped him flush on the chin and they didnt phase him, i challenge any man to take that exact shot from Klitschko and not go down.

    Heart and Desire is a 50/50, both men seem like they really want to win, i wouldnt question one wants it more than the other although i would say, Joshua has been in and around money for a long long time now, he isnt money motivated as much as he was, Parker has never seen money like this before, when Parker goes down and hits the deck and that gut check kicks in and you have a million things running around your head, will Parker think, im a very rich man now, im here ive made it. Will he have the will too carry on? Joshua has had that gut check, we all saw that.

    Heavily in favour of Joshua. Theres a reason Joshua is a favourite for this fight in the eyes of the majority of boxing pundits. If Parker wins this its a massive upset as everything is heavily stacked against him.

    Joshua is bigger, home town advantage, hits hard, Parker seems to be faster, quicker on his feet, don't really know how good Parker's chin is, but we will find out Saturday................Parker seems to be too small, but that does not always matter..........................Parker does have better stamina.................
