...he'd be lauded above Joshua, Fury and Dubois, given significant opportunties to fight for titles based on merit and probably have been 2 times champion by now.
Matchroom and Queensberry have deliberately and systematically been holding him back, sidelining him and setting up multiple obstacles to prevent avenging rematches with Joshua and title fights with Usyk.
Dubois run to his first title shot was not earned by fighting legit contenders. His second was defending an e-mailed belt he didn't deserve also.
Now there's talk of promoting a still wet behind the ears British kid in Itauma to legit contender status or giving Kabayel a title shot despite facing lesser competition than Parker.
Some are saying Parker is over-rated, but if any Brit or American had taken on and bested Wilder, then Zhang and Bakole while having Dubois duck him, the partisan pom and yankee fanbois would be screaming for a title fight.
And then there's Fury, out jogging back from the pub claiming he beat Usyk twice but was robbed...lol
If he hadn't made good friends with Parker, and they'd decided not to fight each other, Parker would have laid waste to him by now.
Fury knew Parker was all wrong for him so never wanted to fight him. And now he thinks he can jump the queue because of the money on offer for a 3rd Usyk fight just cos he's British...GTFOH!!!
If he wants Parker's mandatory shot, call him out and earn it. Likewise for Joshua, otherwise give the Mighty Oulskin his flowers. He's earnt them the right way and is as much a credit to his family, his country and his culture as Usyk is.
Listen I've watched WWE enough to know you are supposed to NEVER HEADBUTT A SAMOAN
Parker being SAMOAN and coming off second best from a headbutt is disgraceful.
Especially a peanut headed beetle juice muthafücka like the booty snatcher!
The Whyte fight was bogus. One of the knockdowns was a big headbutt and if it had been ruled correctly, Whyte doesn't win the fight.

Parkers performances vs Brits
Vs Hughie, horrible 12 round UD win, not parkers fault the fight stunk but he certainly didn't help either
Vs AJ, boring low effort 12 round loss, Ref didn't help Parker but Parker just accepted it and showed no determination at all
Vs Whyte, dropped twice, only showed any ambition on the 12th when Whyte was gassed and presented NO danger
Vs Chisora 1, robbed Chisora, awful Parker performance
Vs Chisora 2, probably parkers career best win
Vs Joyce, brutally KTFO sniffles Parker
Vs Jack Massey, 12 of the worst rounds you will ever see.
Parker is middle of the road and his results show it, he's Whyte/Chisora level.
The Whyte fight was bogus. One of the knockdowns was a big headbutt and if it had been ruled correctly, Whyte doesn't win the fight.

Anyone else have 7 better heavyweight fighters getting rounds better than The Mighty Oilskin Parker ?
We have 1 for Joe Joyce...lol
Joe Joyce beating the living snotout of Parker.
Parker is 1 and 1 with Chisora, so he's basically that level
Oh so im one guy whose been amping Parker since my first day here and that's evidence of him being over-hyped by the entire boxing community.
You know what hyperbole is ?
My alt is still in use and got temporarily suspended for bypassing the swearing mode and substituting vowels with ä,ë,ï,ö,ü , like this... you fücking stüpid cünt.
Andy Lee is Hamzah Sheeraz trainer and i like him. I like that Lee was trained by Emmanuel Steward. There's a Kronk lineage there that means something. Its what he instils in his fighters and what Parker and Sheeraz do, and what he helped his cuz Fury to do; sit down on carefully selected punches selected and throw them with bad intentions when theres an opportunity.
Fück me...you're dumb. Parker if he gets the fight that hes earnt will be Usyks biggest threat because he's the one Usyk will be fighting. Its the guy in front of you that's always the biggest threat. Not the guy you're looking to behind him.
lol...asked for 7 others better than Parker and all you got is shot ol Joyce. Now i know you're an idiot. Joyce gets smacked around by any fool these days.
Who gives a fück if Parker can beat Kabayel ? The fight to make, based on merit, is Usyk for all the straps. If not strip him, e-mail it to Parker and let someone else fight Parker for it. Same for Kabayel and his interim status.
Andy Lee trained and came up with gameplans that Parker delivered on to beat Wilder, Zhang and Dubois if he'd not shat himself the day before the fight so gifted his K.O to Bakole.
I'm done with you now. So take your ass I've just shredded back, and run along. There's a good lad.
Have a great life!
So you're refusing to answer whether you think Kabayel beats Parker?
Speaks volumes lol
I like Parker, he's on a decent run of beating 40 year old names, but if he were british, he would be regarded around the same level as Whyte, Joyce, Chisora etc because that's his level, he's lost to 2 of them.
Except, Whyte, Chisora and Joyce didn't just beat Wilder, Zhang and Bakole in their last 3 fights and it doesn't matter what happened before that...
You're only as good as your last gig and Parker's was a 1st round knockout of the world's greatest sparring partner!
AJ and Fury's last fights were a splattering and a comprehensive loss in a rematch he also lost.
He wouldn't be held above them
He lost to Whyte. Both AJ and Fury flattened Whyte.
He hasn't beaten anyone near as good as Wlad
He got flattened by Joyce. Chisora has beaten Joyce.
He arguably went 1-1 with Chisora, many felt he lost the first.
He did beat Wilder but Wilder has been damaged goods since Fury.
He lost to AJ.
So in what world would he be held above Fury or AJ? It's simply nonsense.
I like Parker, he's on a decent run of beating 40 year old names, but if he were british, he would be regarded around the same level as Whyte, Joyce, Chisora etc because that's his level, he's lost to 2 of them.
No one except most all pundits including Frank Warren are calling for the fight.
But if not Parker now, then Parker later, he's not going away until someone does to his 'overrated' ass what he did to Wilder, Zhang and Bakole.
I don't think Usyk will have much motivation to fight Parker or Kabayel. Parker vs Kabayel should have been the co-main though and winner fights Usyk. Not surprised Parked sat aside when he is first in the que though out of the interims
Parker has next to no chance of beating Usyk. Usyk is a much better boxer than Parker in every department. Unlike the two stiff bodybuilders (AJ and DDD) he doesn’t even have a punchers chance.
Parker would have smashed Miller, Hrgovic and Joshua as easily as Dubois did.
Wilder , Zhang and Bakole, even Joyce were avoided and feared until Parker stepped up and showed everyone how they weren't to be. No one else had the balls too and triple knee Dubois would have been smashed by all 3
The matchroom and queensberry stables were all sucking Turki dïck and manouvering their charges for repeated dips into the Saudi bloodmoney well while sidelining Parker and any other non Brit.
Usyk, Parker and Kabayel are the best fighters getting around and the only worthy contenders to the titles!
Parker all ready lost to Parker. Slept by Joyce. DDD KOd AJ and was doing decent vs Joyce even with a eye shut. Zhang Bakole Parker over rated af. Hopefully Parker does not get the fight no one wants to watch him stink the place out
That ain't truth bruv!
No one is hyping up Parker as any threat to Usyk or giving him a chance to win.
Still doesn't take away the fact he's earnt the opportunity to try and is legit top 3. Name 7 others who are better than him at the mo. I need a good laugh.
If he's such an easy beat for Usyk, rather than Kabayel, it would be soft money while cementing his legacy by clearing all contenders from his era.
But sure, if Usyk wants to get his belly softened up by Kabayel for the same amount of dosh then go that route and watch Agit lose in frustration.
Parker will still be there after whomever like he is after Dubois ducked him.
Are you kidding me? 99% of your posts are hyping him and because you love him so much, Andy 'achieved nothing as a trainer' Lee. Literally all you do. Didn't your alt get banned for your obsession?
We all know as fact that if Andy Lee was someone else's trainer, you wouldn't like him lol.
Besides you, of course he's over hyped.
Lost to Chisora, destroyed by Joyce, scraped though Zhang at best, lost in most people's eyes, struggled with Jack Massey...
...yet he's Usyks next biggest threat??
Over hyped to the max. He wouldn't even beat this version of Joe Joyce - and you want me to name 7 others lol
Only thing Lee has done has made this guy a potshotter and runner, but close the gap and he's done.
You think he could beat Kabayel? That's about as one sided a beatdown as you could imagine for Parker
-
The truth here is that Parker IS massively over hyped. He's been beaten up, lost multiple times, struggled against average Cruiserweight, tasted the canvas on multiple occasions and somehow is regarded as Usyks biggest threat.
Put it down on paper and this guy is barely top 10.

I was all for them but I'm saying no one wants to see them again now.
We're done with hyped up Brits and their handlers holding belts to ransom with rematches and shenanigans to manipulate rankings and mandatorys.
Its time the belts were fought for on merit again and top of that list is Parker, as over-rated and boring as he might be.
Tell turkey or Usyk man, no British fans are asking for fury or AJ again
- You can't credit him for the Bakole win. That's ridiculous.
- Lost to Chisora
- Demolished by Joyce
- Struggled to do anything against domestic level Cruiserweight Jack Massey
- Lucky to survive or get the decision v Zhang who had him on the canvas multiple times and didn't even try
Some credit for the Zhang win, even if Zhang didn't try, Parker survived and nicked a very controversial decision. But didn't even threaten Zhang who only has a 4 round gas tank. Look at what Kabayel did.
He got a decision v 'Wilder'. Again this man didn't want to be in the ring, but Parker did what he had to do, so some credit there, with a pinch of salt. Again, look at what Zhang did.

If you wanna complain about the needless rematches i'm with you on that. But to say no one wanted Fury/Usyk or Usyk/AJ is crazy.

Its to stop the astroturfing of fans supposedly calling for British fights no one wants, like Fury or Joshua or Chisora or Itauma while denigrating Parker as being over-rated, boring and unlikely to mount a decent challenge to Usyk.
It's like there's bad actors on the queensberry or matchroom payroll schilling talking points for gullible casuals.
Itauma is the only weird unreasonable opponent for Usyk listed there, and its a fight that hasnt happened and wont happen unless Usyk is still around in a few years and has fallen off.
Chisora was a logical early HW opponent for an Usyk who was dipping his toes in the division. Obviously Fury and AJ were much bigger fights for Usyk on a commercial level than Parker and were credible opponents who had earned the fight.
If you wanna complain about the needless rematches i'm with you on that. But to say no one wanted Fury/Usyk or Usyk/AJ is crazy.
I'm not exactly sure what the point of this thread is...

You've pushed me to this.
Joseph Parker career review incoming.
We will be revisiting such classics as Parker vs Jack Massey, Parkers WORLD TITLE DEFENCE vs Razvan Cojanu and Parker vs Hughie Fury
Lol...do what you gotta do champ.
But the fact remains, no one is more deserving or worthy of the next title shot than...
Lupesoliai La'aulialemalietoa Joseph Parker.
...and if any Brit or American had Parker's recent record, they'd have had one by now and possibly an email strap to boot.
