A stay busy fight that Parker should win. He sometimes fights to his level of opponent so it could end up going the distance. Regardless adding the Commonwealth strap to his resume isn’t a bad thing but it is a step backwards from his career achievements. He needs a win after the Joyce loss…

He has a win after the Joyce loss , it’s just more proof though anyone ranked in a top 10 spot in any sanctioned body should be taking out of it with fights like this . It would force the top 10 guys to stop taking cherry picks , Jack Massey wasn’t even a heavyweight his last fight .

Tszyu (5-0, 4KO) is straight back is straight back

Right! I forgot about the Massey fight. As long as there is 4 sanctioning bodies & regional belts guys will continue to get generous rankings. Especially fights from the Asian/Pacific region. The quality of depth from that area is weak. The WBO has the Asia/Pacific & Oriental titles there. Win one you are top 15 & win both top 10 in their rankings..

What a shame. I thought Parker would stay by Boxxer and fight Bakole.

Obviously Parker is done at higher level, he fights nobodies only.

Is he no longer with BOXXER?

Nikita is impressing me more than Tim did when he was a prospect, he looks like a tank. Parker needs a highlight reel KO badly

[Phase III]

Parker, Chisora, Pulev are all in the hustling business. How in the world do these washed up fighters keep getting fights that are boring as s*it?

[famicommander]

Just retire already. Parker has been horrible for years and years and I'm sick of people acting like he matters. That fight with Junior Fa should've told everyone that he was absolutely done.
