Comments Thread For: Hearn Reacts To Team Parker's Claim on Anthony Joshua Bout

[yoz]

These two are on a collision course, for sure. Maybe a year or so down the line.

Anyone that gets taken 11 rounds by Duhapas aint doing **** against Joshua.

And joshua would take on whoever, but Parker isnt worth a dime at the moment. AJ fights with Chisora, Stiverne or Jennings makes way more money and a better name on joshua's resume

parkers team is just desperate for a payday to keep Parker on their books

Have you seen AJ's defense? AJ has no head movement, he stands in front of fighters, he doesn't move as much, which is why he got rocked in 2nd round against Whyte. Lets have a look at both fighters - they both haven't fought decent fighters with the exception of a couple, but when you look at the heavyweight division there aren't many decent fighters. These 2 fighters are the best upcoming fighters in the heavyweight division - both undefeated.

Get real

Yeah the guy who has fought Vitali klitschko, tyson Fury twice, Robert Helenius and David haye is scared of Joseph Parker. Get a grip

Parker would destroy Chisora.
Chisora knows this,that why he won't fight him.
Parker is 3 WBO,7 WBC,7 IBF. So there is lot to gain ranking wise.
Parker is too fast and skilled for Chisora.
You obviously don't rate Parker.
You rate these has been Pommie fighters better than your own countryman.

Time will tell.

I dont rate Chisora, but he has never been scared of fighting anyone, so claiming he is scared of parker is crazy. He will fight anyone, but why go all the way to new zealand when he could earn more money fighting in his backyard

Parker is ok but he hasnt fought anyone but bums. Everyone thought David price was the next big thing, same with Dominic Guinn. Not all good prospects pan out you should temper your confidence a bit

"AJ: I'm ready to take on whoever I need to continue my journey"
Joshua ready to take on whoever?? come on!! his manager Hearns has already said NO to Joseph Parker's promotion team..he shouldnt come out and say he'll take on whoever!! Because it's pretty clear whoever doesn't mean WHOEVER. He already said No to Joseph Parker because he know he will get beat..Put him in with Wilder and so everyone can see that Joshua is all hype by promoting and fans that have NO CLUE..Wilder would put him in his place on the ground knocked OUT..All Joshua is a prospect and that's it NOTHING SPECIAL..but I still would love to see Parker v Joshua won't happen for years though..he will most likely fight Fury because he has a title and he's British.

I am a Parker fan more than a Joshua fan, but I highly doubt it.

It's more likely to be about timing/options..... and risk/reward.

Joshua has way more options than Parker at this stage.

Those guys will fight if they both keep winning.

After just re watching his fight with Bergman, Parker really needs to learn how to cut off a ring. He just followed him around for 8 rounds, and it isnt as if bergman is fast on his feet

The facts

I predict with confidence come 2017 Parker will be world Champion.
He has fastest hand speed in the division,Piston like jab,power in both hands,
beautiful combinations,he is mean body puncher,he can take a shot,
good footwork,stamina.
This boy can put out 100 punches a round.
No body can live with that.

He needs to work on his defence.But once he masters this he will
be the best heavyweight on the Planet.
He will make mugs of all haters and doubters.

Personally I think Andy Ruiz has faster hands, but yeah parkers are fast. But no his jab is not piston like, he doesnt throw nearly enough to set his range up. And how can you say he can take a shot when he was wobbled by nacemento. He hasnt been hit by anyone proper yet so its just an assumtion that he can take a punch.

He cant cut off a ring. Its basic in the boxing world and he looks clueless when following guys around the ring.

Its easy to look like king kong vs bergman and martz, but when hes in there with someone that might throw back, then we will see what he is made of. until then he is just a prospect

No he is 2015 Ring magazine heavyweight prospect of the year.
Not just prospect.

Funny but Parker is not ready for Joshua yet.
