Comments Thread For: A Deontay Wilder Showdown Is One That Joseph Parker Would Welcome

[PRINCEKOOL]

Parker is trash. Wilder would obliterate him.

Looked horrible against Joyce.
Looked horrible against Chisora twice.
Looked horrible against Fa.
Looked horrible against Leapai.
Looked horrible against Whyte (even though he got robbed on a headbutt knockdown).
Looked horrible against Joshua (didn't even try to win).
Got a gift hometown decision against Ruiz.

Parker is not and has never been a top tier heavyweight.

Wilder would be a big favorite, big time. But I think you are underrating Parker.

Parker beat Joyce up more than any of his former opponents.

Parker was not a easy fight for Joyce. He was being hit with big punches throughout the entire fight.

Yes he showed good durability, but those type of fights are damaging. I saw a interview with Joyce the day after the fight, and he was damaged.

Parker beat the last half decent version of Derek Chisora, actually decked him 'Fury was not able to deck Chisora in any of their fights'. Chisora out of condition, and miles outside his peak probably would of made it to the 12th round vs Fury, if the fight was not stopped by the referee.

Only three fighters have been able to decked Chisora. Haye, Whyte & Parker.

Parker is a good fight for any of the Top fighters. He may not be favorite to beat them, but he will be a challenge.

Wilder has the potential to lose a wide decision......he should only stick to the money fights now.

I want to see Parker Vs Anderson

Parker is far less risky than Ruiz. Wonder if Parker is the "mystery opponent" Malik was referring to.

Parker is brave. Parker could do well against WIlder, and Wilder possibly easier than Joyce was. Wilder may ko Parker, but wont be wearing him down like Joyce did. But Parker maybe could beat Wilder, ii wouldnt dismiss that possibility.

I don't think that Parker has enough tools to beat Wilder by decision, and if he gets into a fight trying to get the KO, he might as well bring his pillow and blankey because he's going to sleep.

Wilder knocks him out. But it would be the best win for Wilder so far.

I watched every one of those fights.

Chisora was half dead and Parker couldn't finish him off. That's pathetic. Both of them were so gassed they could barely stand up. Can't even show up to a fight in shape.

Joyce has no good wins on his resume. He's not legit until he beats someone good. Washed fighters like Stiverne, Hammer, Jennings, and Parker don't count. Get him in there with Usyk, Fury, Wilder, or Joshua and we'll talk.

Did you watch Parker struggle mightily with the ghost of Alex Leapai?

Did you watch him arguably get handed a gift against Junior Fa, who got obliterated by old man Lucas Browne (coming off a KO loss to a rugby guy) in one round?

Tell me again which good win has Wilder on his resume?

Or are you counting losses to Fury in his great resume, lol.

So you say Joyce has no good wins. But you count Breazeale, Szpilka, Ortiz, Stiverne, Washington as great wins for Wilder. You are funny guy.

Wilder is basically nobody. He beat nobody good so far. If he beats Parker, that would be his best win by mile.

Well if he’s not then who are all these top guys Wilders fought all these years ? Parker is rated over Ortiz just on his Ruiz win and has decent resume so again this logic isn’t helping . Not sure you guys understand you can’t actually slate any one notable if Wilder has a paper thin resume and can’t actually say for sure if he’s beaten anyone as good as Parker ,you do understand that right ? And if you don’t well ?

Correct. If Wilder beats Ruiz, that will be his best win so far.
