Cojanu is not a "lanky" fighter like Joshua. He is the "man mountain" type - huge and slow - like Ustinov. Very hard to remove if all he does is cover up and survive. It is the "lanky" fighters that Parker destroys.
@Kiwi_in_America I like you as a poster but its time to put your balls where mouth is (no homo). Prof pic bet: AJ beats Parker: I choose your profile pic. Parker beats AJ: You pick mine.
I am not comparing Joshua to Meehan or Dimitrenko except in this ONE respect - their BODY TYPE. Joshua is more powerful than both those guys - but he shares the exact same "lanky" frame with them. And that is the "build" of fighter that Parker ALWAYS puts to sleep. "Lanky" fighters are his absolute favorite. Thus Joshua could be in for a rough night. Parker and Barry have had AJ lined up for YEARS.
Blah blah body type blah. Just make sure you have a box of Kleenex and some excuses ready for when AJ beats your boy.
Parkers look more impressive, Joshuas are against higher quality, about the level of Parkers recent fights that have gone the distance.
What are people going on about? Parker is gash. Limited, overrated, and about to be sparked early by Joshua. And im no fan of the robot.
BTW - with that "lanky" body type comes- -Slightly stiff, awkward movement -A slightly suspect chin -Slightly poor punch resistance -An overall slowness of speed that Parker ALWAYS gets inside and smashes. There is a reason for Parker's confidence. They know this type and they always do well against them. People will be surprised.
You never know what Parker will do in the fight, he has a chance, I expect him to lose by TKO or UD, probably UD or split decision, a draw? Joshua will own the judges, referee, boxing commission, etc., however, Parker is better than Wilder..............
