He will be a name in someone's resume. He brings certain fanbase from his area.

Except he is their best HW, they have nobody else to offer him lol

97-92 Parker on my card, typical comfortable but lackluster win from him. I have zero clue where Parker goes from here, I'd still love Parker/Whyte 2, but it's really the only fight with Parker that would interest me and I don't see that happening anytime soon. Massey acquitted himself well, all things considered. I've been pining for Massey vs CBS and I still want that fight, think it's very competitive and an exciting matchup, hope they could get that done for the summer on the south coast

Parker is trash. With his experience and size advantage he should had bullied that cruiserweight and stopped him.

You could put Parker in with Margaret from nextdoor and he'd walk out barely holding onto a SD and she'd not have a mark on her.

Fans, myself included need to stop overrating the absolutely hell out of him.

Everytime this guy fights he is given the benefit of the doubt or judged on how we hoped he'd turn out but he hasn't done or shown us **** in about 10yrs now!

yeah, i was living out there when he started out, followed him ever since and its been one of the most frustrating careers to watch, Parker has all the physical attributes but he just does not have the dog in him. he's just a nice laid back Christian kiwi bloke who happens to box.
when was the last time he knocked someone out?

Got Parker winning virtually every round but another poor, laboured performance from him in what was supposedly a showcase fight.

He is done at top level and dare I say looked worse than ever under Lee?
What happened to his defense? his once renowned handpseed? He looks so old and out of shape to me. Makes me feel wheezy just watching him

yeah

I think when they signed them, they were half expecting Dillian Whyte to sign with them and make a second fight

Parker vs Dubois would actually be interesting, but Warren probably no longer interested since Parker is on the other side of the fence. If he weren't fighting Yoka, I'd actually be curious to see Parker/Takam 2

Parker always looked like he would not go the extra mile ...

[dan_cov]

Very frustrating too watch I remember when he was coming up and regardless who you had winning when he fought Ruiz around that time I felt he moved well, he was relatively slick, blazing handspeed, put combinations together well etc.
These days every performance seems lifeless and he fights like he's half asleep throwing single shots and smothering himself.

I think my opinions on Kevin Barry was wrong and maybe he didn't become stagnant under him just hit his ceiling.
Maybe I was wrong about Barry holding him back and another trainer was what was needed.
Unbelievably he only just turned 31

The next fight should be going the distance because neither of them have much power
