    After that, Zhang was more wary - and flinching at a lot of the feints Parker was bringing.

    In the rematch I am hoping Zhang remembers those shots - and starts flinching from Parker's feints right from Rnd One.

    If so, Parker may be in for a much easier night - and hopefully can win without being knocked down.

    Gastank issues. Plagued his career. I like Parker but he was lucky he fought an aging Sumo.

    At the end, Parker said he could have gone 20 rounds. His sharpness and output actually increased over the fight.

    I think Parker's stamina issues are now behind him

    The Brit level is the highest ever scoring level using the ultimate godly benchmark level as a starting point. We went off the actual godly scale...

    And have been there since time immemorial.

    Parker is still improving

    And these tough challenges are what he is thriving on

    Age was one of the factors that had me favoring Parker going into the fight.

    He looks a lot better since the Joyce fight.

    He's winning, and there's nothing wrong with that.

    I'm not a fan of the whole 'someone I know knows this' lingo but I felt it would be remiss of me not to mention it, considering he found out before the fight took place and seeing how the fight panned out, I tend to believe it.

    :lol: 100% factually accurate and true. Brit Level is the gold standard and I was being modest when I said it's the tier above elite world level. If I'm being totally honest it's at least a couple of tiers above it.

    All true, squire.

    But we personally being part of this great land and it's fabled warriors, simply don't go around boasting and broadcasting it on internet forums ..


    It's just the way perfection rolls, squire.

    A big problem - if not the main one - is his right hand lacking both power and accuracy. There's no real deterrent from walking him down.

    That's probably because he's not fighting Joe Joyce.

    It'd be interesting to see if he can beat Joyce in a rematch though. I'd be super impressed if he does.
