    It was the same Wilder we have seen the past 10 years. That was getting out boxed and losing multiple rounds to low level opposition in Washington and Spzilka. The difference this time Wilder was fighting a proven legit world level opponent in Parker (Wilder has never beaten anyone of that standard) and Parker fought an effective game plan; exploiting Wilder for his lack of ring IQ, lack of ability to fight on the back foot and lack of ability to fight on inside that Wilder has displayed during his career.

    You spend your career knocking out the likes of Spzilka, Washington, Malik Scott, Stiverne level opponents but your going to get found out when you step up levels and fight someone the level of Parker.

    Washed Up Wilder on Saturday and even Dave Allen would have beat him.

    All he had was power and once that went he had nothing to offer.

    It is no different to the Saudi's chopping your hands off and attempting a Tommy Tank the next day.

    There’s zero difference between the Wilder that fought Washington and the Wilder that fought Parker, except he was fighting someone that knew how to duck a telegraphed right hand.

    Yet Joe ' Super Slow Motion' Joyce landed at will against the great Joe Parker and obliterated him. Even Dillian Whyte beat him as well.

    Wilder's power had deserted him during his 'retirement' due to his old age at 38 following a long period of inactivity.

    Joyce is physically very strong and walks his opponents down, whereas Wilder has always been passive, waiting to throw it from the outside. He’s just not very good and has been feasting on poor opposition his whole career.

    Fair enough analysis with his career as he only won with that power that has clearly gone.

    His feet now look as though they are walking through treacle as well.

    The sad thing is he will get another bag of Saudi Loot.

    Parker deserves a bit of credit to be fair. He's probably in his prime and and maybe improved? People talk about Wilders telegraphed right hand but Parker got dropped by Chisoras much slower version in seconds. Wilder was his 4th fight this year and seems to actually be taking it seriously again

    Both Joyce and Whyte clearly have a higher IQ than Wilder ( in particular Joyce) both are far better in fighting in inside than Wilder and as much as Whyte telegraphed it's no where near as predictable a

    Wilder power seem intact in previous two fights, Parker just didn't give him the chance to land (also bear in mind Parker does have a better chin than anyone Wilder has fought).

    How many punches did Chisora throw? Parker had it so easy v Wilder, just avoid the right hand.

    That was literally the first punch. OK let's not give Parker any credit and not a chance he has improved or beneftting from activity and a serious mindset.

    Parker looks slightly better but he was not much better than a very poor Derek Chisora anytime during his career.

    I think that is a bit unfair. Parker did well and looked pretty good.
