Comments Thread For: Wilder Says Parker Fight on Dec. 23 Should Be Main Event: People Want To See Knockouts, Excitement

[James]

I was wondering when they ego will start working. A lot big names and only one main event.
Joshua most popular name for sure, in general.

Regarding who is deciding who is main event, it is Saudi and no one else.
No one else could make them fight on same event.

Why not Wilder vs the guy that beat the **** out of Parker a year ago? or why not Wilder vs the guy who beat the **** out of the guy who beat the **** out of Parker? wouldnt those fights make more sense considering Wilder is supposed to be a top 3-4 HW and has only lost to Fury?

The worst thing is even though its clearly designed to be a "safe" match up for Wilder, its probably a top 3 career opponent for him lol. Typical boxing.

I really believe that this is not easy fight for Wilder.

It will be like Saudis say. They are giving the money for this.

And everybody wants their money

I agree. Parker on a good night is quick, skilled and durable enough to potentially banana skin Wilder, which makes it an even more baffling choice of opponent.

It's a really nice card, all these big names on one evening.

Unfortunately they're not fighting each other, namely Wilder and Joshua. Now that would've been a cracker to end 2023 on.

He also trains with fury so he will likely has some inside tips on how to beat him.

Totally dislike Wilder arrogant and delusional personality, he spent the last 3 years being unable to cop with 2 brutal losses and making idiotic excuses one after the other. That said, i agree with him in this istance, i consider both WIlder vs Parker and Dubois vs Miller more interesting and intriguing than Joshua vs Wallin.
If cautious Joshua shows up, considering Wallin is no killer, we are in for 12 boring ass rounds...

[SteveM]

Wilder is probably right. Parker is much more proven than Wallin and in current form (until Joshua gets rid of this scared / tentative style he has developed).

Joshua has a lot to do to prove he still has it. Not liking how he is looking with Derrick James (now temporarily with Ben Davison). The only positive is he realizes he destroyed his career with inactivity and greed - not sure if its too late to get that back now. Time will tell. He really should have stayed with Garcia IMHO.

I think he saw something at Garcia's gym , or with Garcia, that didn't sit well with him
