Zhang vs parker is the biggest robbery in boxing in the last decade

[SilverMiles]

I've not seen fight. But I'm thinking 2 knock downs so that's 4 rounds in bag and only needed to win 2 more rounds to get draw?
So Zhang rather more lost the fight, rather than Parker won

That math isn't mathing, 2 KDs just mean you scored two KDs. If you lose every other round you still lose 116 to 110. Even with 2KDs you have to win a total of 6 rounds to win the fight. 5 rounds would only get you a draw.

[SilverMiles]

Those 2 KD's count for 4 rounds of the bat. Unless they come back and get beat down or dropped..... so you saying Zhang did not win 4 rounds total??? At least?

No it doesn't, not even close to the same as winning 4 rounds.

Winning 4 rounds with no KDs = 116 to 112

Winning two rounds with 2 KD scored = 116 to 110

Winning 4 rounds with 2 KD = 114 to 112

In all of these scenarios you'll still lose the fight.

I have less of a problem with this fight than I do with Navarrete still retaining his belt over Conceicao. He got outlanded in like 11 rounds by wide margins, and IMO lost every second that he didn't score a KD. Zhang didn't really try here. If he had another gear, he'd have stopped Parker, but he decided to beat himself. Same thing happened earlier in the night. Justis Huni was the only one who was in danger of being stopped in his fight, but his lackluster opponent had an even worse gas tank than Zhang, so got outpointed also.

I think you got the names wrong on the thread. This can be said for the Reyes vs Ball fight, not Zhang vs Parker.

[satiev1]

can't have a chinese champ. Parker literally just tried to survive. They gave him the win. Lmfao


absolute joke

disgusting. No way he won 9 rounds.

[pollywog]

disgusting. No way he won 9 rounds.

K. Take out the 10-8 knockdown rounds and Parker won 10 then...

[Lance98]

Parker was outboxing him for the most part. 2 knockdowns means squat when you are getting outworked throughout the fight.

[Roadblock]

Its not rocket science, Zhang was out worked over 12, the only other time he went 12 he lost, the other time he went a little distance he drew over 10, and has 1 win over 10 with a nobody.

The guy is near 300lbs he slows to a zombie walk and throws a few big ones he gets physically tired after 6 rounds its all downhill from there, if he don't get you out early he fades badly, and you cant do that with a in/out guy like Parker that puts out a steady work rate for 12 rounds, Zhangs resume tells you exactly what happened.

[HeadShots]

Not effective offense tho. Which is not a scoring criteria


activity is not a scoring criteria. The offense has to be effective.

[Tatabanya]

Zhang looked like a beached whale gasping for air in the last three rounds.
