Ring Magazine was right to rank Parker #5 Heavyweight

[norak]

People were saying Ring Magazine was way off by having Joseph Parker ranked #5 at Heavyweight. But it appears they were right in the end.

No other rankings had Parker so high. So I say Ring has very accurate rankings.

Now he will probably be ranked at #3 probably.

I’d put him #4 behind Zhang. I know triangle theories don’t always work out, but Parker got smashed by Joyce who got smashed twice by Zhang.

Parker has always been better than many claimed, losing to AJ put the blinders on though.

There was a name your top 10 heavyweights recently thread. I had Parker in top 10. I think I had Parker below wilder but was tempted to have him above.
Someone please bump thread up

Joyce still destroys him if he has any chin left.

He was still very tentative and careful in there. Wilder was there to be KOd. Andy Lee was imploring him to go for it, but he just didn't want to.

Not sure Parker has much left in the tank tbh. He could lose on points or be walked down against anyone decent.

Parker can sling up real good!
