    I think Parker beats Zhang

    Here is why. Zhang must hurt , drop and stop his opponent inside 8 rounds to win. After that he gasses out and fights to survive. Good luck doing that to Parker. Parker has a very good gas tank and a good chin. It took Joyce 11 rounds to hurt and stop him.

    Parker is better boxer than Hrgovic, if the fight goes into late rounds, Parker wins a comfortable decision or even a late stoppage.

    Joyce was stylisticly a nightmare for Parker, because he is a huge pressure fighter with a granit chin and a good gas tank. If Zhang could do that to Parker, he would win by a stoppage also, but Zhang `s cardio sucks.

    If Parker can't beat an old slow 40 year old then he should just retire

      Parker couldn't stay off the canvas vs. the sloth Joyce. He won't see the hook after Zhang's left.

        Parker rarely takes his head offline when he comes in (especially when he's doing multiple jabs), or leaves it in the same lane (body jab, he takes his head offline to the right). I think Zhang may hit harder than Joyce, and he's deceptively fast and accurate, especially for a big guy, and he's a good counter puncher, and has a very quick lead cross. Also he's a southpaw and Parker has only fought one. I think there's a good chance that Parker eats a bunch of shots as he comes in. His instincts are going to be wrong for avoiding the check right hook too.

            I favor Zhang, but the ppl acting like Parker has zero or near zero chance to win here are insane. Zhang was life & death with Jerry Forrest ffs & while I thought he eeked out the L to Filip that was still a close ass fight.

            Zhang ain't on some peak Mike Tyson sh^t over here or anything. Again I'm picking Zhang but its probably like a 70/30 Zhang lean for me.

              i know styles make fights but i find it hard to see how parker could lose to joyce and then beat the guy who absolutely annihilated joyce.... i just think he came up against a wilder who (whilst overrated in the first place) just came to pick up the saudi money

                Styles make fights, and Parker is peaking it seems, so it's possible. But I'm betting on Zhang.

                  Parker did so well in last fight, I think he has a good chance. But I've seen Parker under perform enough times, to be swayed by Zhang to win.
