Parker beat Ruiz fair and square in my book. He’s unquestionably a decent HW, come on man, he’s not gonna be in the HOF by any stretch but he’s had a better career than most.
Parker was a massive underdog tonight and upset the odds against a guy universally considered one of the top 4 HW’s and that doesn’t even make him decent? Just give the man some credit and accept you were wrong about him man.

No, I am more inclined to think I was wrong about Wilder than about Parker.

I have seen Joseph Parker look TERRIBLE in way too many fights. The Junior Fa fight was a war crime it was so terrible.
I think this crop of heavyweight champions is trash. Joshua, Fury, Wilder, Ruiz, Martin, Stiverne, Parker... these guys remind me more of Siarhei Liakhovich, Sam Peter, Nikolay Valuev, and Lamon Brewster than they do Wlad, Vitali, Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis, or Tyson.Last edited by famicommander; 12-23-2023, 06:08 PM.Comment

You don’t achieve what Parker has without being decent. Elite? Hell no but he’s proven himself as a solid fighter.

You do if there aren't any good fighters in the division.
I cannot stress enough how absolutely horrible Parker looked in the Fa fight, and how horrible Fa has looked in every other fight I have ever seen him in. I cannot stress enough how embarrassing it was to watch Parker fail to put Chisora out. The fact that Chisora himself was ever considered decent is pretty humiliating for the state of this division.Comment

Finally we agree, there are no greats around. Only Usyk is maybe better than average.

So holding wins over Wilder and Ruiz immediately becomes irrelevant because he under performed against Junior Fa?

You’ve always maintained Wilder was a top HW up until this loss to Parker. You have to stand on that and give Parker some credit.Comment

No, what I have to do is admit I was wrong about Wilder. Which I have.
And Ruiz lost a majority decision in Parker's backyard. He won 8 rounds clean in that fight and he sucks too. Needed a gift to beat 43 year old Ortiz.
And it wasn't just the Fa fight. Both Chisora fights, the Hughie fight, the Leapai fight... absolutely Shobox opening match tier garbage fights.Comment
