Joe Parker is getting overrated

[HandsofIron]

Maybe.....but Parker did take out the current, relevant threats plus the boogeyman Bakole so you have to give him props for that at least.

All that's left in the top ten HW is probably Kabayel.

[MulaKO]

I dont rate parker too high. He couldn't even beat dillian whyte

Lmao that fight was 7 years ago
What a great comparison
Smdh

The few fighters in the sport that will actually take risks and fights the top available opposition.

[hugh grant]

I think he's 4th best in world maybe, if pick usyk, ddd, and ajit to best him

I believe Parker beats DDD.

[Bronson66]

He's had some good wins lately, BUT...

Zhang: 40, no gas tank, Kabayel stood in front of him and stopped him

Wilder: 40, shot, poleaxed by Zhang, nothing left

Bakole: 40 stone, fat, jet lag, schooled by that Nigerian bum


Fact is all 3 of parkers recent impressive wins have INSTANTLY aged horribly, and there's nothing to suggest he's any better of a fighter than got ko by Joe Joyce

I think he has improved,by how much we won't know until he meets one of the other top 3.

[Willow The Wisp]

Heavyweight is an absolute wasteland in case you hadn't noticed. You can asterisk his wins if you want but the reality is there's nobody out there besides Parker or Kabayel for Usyk to fight after he dismantles Dubois again.

Who else is he supposed to fight? Zhang, Ajagba, Hrgovic, Wardley? Chisora or Joshua again? Bakole? Fury again? Baby Itauma? The ghost of Andy Ruiz?

Because that covers every name in the TBRB, Ring, or ESPN heavyweight top 10. Beyond that you're looking at washed up geezers like Wilder or Pulev or absolute no-hopers like Anderson.

I've gotta tell ya, fans have ALWAYS said that about the Heavyweight Division. ALWAYS.

But let's not forget; they're actually very good. They've always been very good. That's why they had to create weight divisions!

I agree. People acting like he has transformed after almost a decade. In reality he has been flattered by the perfect storm of opponents and circumstances. He is still the same fighter he always was.

They over hyped his wins. At least the great thing is the right man got the Usyk fight next and not Parker. They also like the 'good guy' persona and his cringey 'call out' videos

[Boxing 112]

The right man ?...lol

Sniffles the quitter who Usyk already shamed into bending the knee ?

You wanna see cringey. Stick a microphone in Joshua, Wilder and Dubois face and feel the cringe!!!

For all the good guy schtick, "they" don't want Parker to have a strap cos he's not British.

AJ took Parkers belt. Dubois defended his and took AJs soul. Levels.
