Congrats Parker!

Running? Wtf did you watch? Running is Shakur vs dls, running is Ortiz vs Teo. Parker threw more punches, not just by a few either. He deserved that win, no asterisk, no bs Yeah. It wasn't a full on sprint but he was pretty safety first the whole night. That fight wasn't close.

I didn't expect Zhang to act surprised at the decision but he disappointed me a little.

I like parker but I have to give that an asterisk win. Yeah he won but at times it looked too much like running. Running? Wtf did you watch? Running is Shakur vs dls, running is Ortiz vs Teo. Parker threw more punches, not just by a few either. He deserved that win, no asterisk, no bs

That was a much more impressive victory than the one over Wilder. It surprised me as I thought Parker was fighting again far too soon after Wilder. He would have had only about 4 weeks break prior to getting back into training. It was a deserved win as apart from the 2 knockdowns he simply outboxed Zhang. The Chinese fighter has no real future in the division. He continues to gas out in the later rounds. Huge credit for Parker for showing composure and believing totally in his corner. That was a team effort. Hopefully Parker gets a longer break now and I suspect the next Zhang fight is slightly easier with the same outcome. Parker now knows his correct fighting weight and how to keep in tip top condition. Zhang will not improve his conditioning and possibly it will go backwards. That was a much harder fight for him than against the Croat. Zhang took too much punishment in this fight for a 41 year old man. I think he is cooked. Congrats to Parker. Impressive display of guts and determination. He was so much hungier than that fake Chinese tiger.

Parker did a good job feinting and getting in and out, but he doesn't look like he has much chin left. Joyce destroyed it. Zhang just couldn't follow up on anything. Parker will still make for some interesting fights, he's got no 0 to protect, so gives it his all, but he's a brutal knockout waiting to happen.

Parker has had a very respectable career. Pretty much fought everyone from his era besides Fury. Beat some good names, picked up a belt, made some good money. He probably has a few big fights/pay days left in him too.
