Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker confirmed as next for WBO title after Usyk-Dubois II

[RingoKid]

Meh, don't know. Maybe he is, maybe he's not.

Still hasn't got a chance of winning against Usyk, not even a punchers chance and more than likely doesn't win a round so who cares.

You care enough to post.

I imagine with your powers of prediction youve made squillions backing winners at the bookies.

Perhaps you're right, but Parker is in his prime now has earnt a shot and whatever happens in the ring with Usyk, it is a fight we haven't seen.

A fight where Parker is the last man standing from Usyk's era who could truly test him.

Not quite Squillions, but I am close to my first Gazillion.

Oh yeah.

Parker is dead average mate. Dead average at best. Got totally schooled for 12 rounds straight by AJ and battered by Dillian Whyte and Joe Joyce for fuck sake.

If that's the standard for "no one can beat him" in a division then God help it.

The Parker AJ and Whyte fights were 7 years ago.

Parker was a green kid; overworked and exploited by a lack lustre trainer while getting jobbed by refs against Brit fighters and promoters.

By his own admission Parker should not have fought Joyce while sick and paid the price.

But get it straight champ, AJ, Whyte and Joyce have shown themselves to be dead average. None of them are in sniffing distance of a title. Parker is!

He had a shot lined up vs Dubois until Sniffles pissed his pants and Usyk decided to choose the path of least resistance to fight the big dumb kid again rather than risk losing it to a grown ass man in...

Holy excuses, Batman! I thought my Gazillion £ empire from betting was a high number but your excuses might just go ahead and surpass it.

Leave the excuses at the door, friend. Parker ain't getting his shot next, Dubois is. You'll have to wait. Crying yourself to sleep every night won't change it.

Patience will be your virtue here.

He was winning the Whyte fight until a headbutt caused a knockdown that was incorrectly counted by the ref. Parker was forced to get up immediately and took two rounds to recover, so that effectively put him in a 4 point hole. But he did eventually recover, and he had Whyte on dream street at the final bell.

Whyte dropped him like a sack of shit with a left hook also.

Beat him and beat him comfortably.

The fight would've been a split draw on the cards if the fake knockdown was not counted. If Parker had been given up to 5 minutes to recover it's an entirely different fight from that point on.

I was pretty down on Parker after the fight myself, and I also thought he looked pretty bad against Fa, Leapai, and Chisora despite winning those fights. But I still think it's pretty clear he got screwed over badly in the Whyte fight, so there are better arguments to use against Parker if you want to make that point.

Fairly obvious you don't know the difference between reasons and excuses.

Get back to me when you do. Now run along champ.

Fairly, but not totally? I'll take those odds. What's the ratio of me knowing to not knowing? I must know.

But let's be honest with ourselves here, those are flat out excuses brother They're epitome of that word, you know it's true.

Your flowing tears for Joey are monumentally comical. You should get over it buddy, he'll get his chance I'm sure. As long as he doesn't lose to someone average in the mean time like he has previously. Fingers crossed for you.

K. You've been upgraded to totally obvious you have no idea.

You get an A for effort in trying to get me to do your homework though!
