          need to do some intensive conditioning and a lot of work on his defence. even with those flaws he's a threat, but iron them out and he becomes a world beater

              What attribute about parker is so world class?

              Power? No

              Movement? No

              Jab? No

              Footspeed? No

              Defence? No

              Size? No

              Skills? No

              Hand speed? Maybe, in spurts.

              That's all I really see from this guy. He went to war with takam, who is a top level gatekeeper and there were moments he was almost taken out, in the end he won close but did not look impressive at all.

              Takam is short, slow, doesn't **** hard, has a good engine but at 36 that's on the wane.

              Parker is what he is, very good fighter but simply doesn't have the ingredients to be a great fighter.

              People are going to go on about dillian white wobbling Joshua but dillian whyte is a 6'4" 245lb super heavyweight ****er, Carlos takam is a 6'1" guy who doesn't have a punch...

                I thought Parker showed good heart and some grit, he looked completely gassed at some points.

                That will only get you so far though. He has so many flaws, it's difficult to see how he can compete with the top guys anytime soon, if it all. It's not even like those flaws are something he can fix quickly, he looked very raw at times. I respect the fact he went from knocking out bums in New Zealand to beating Takam on points but Takam isn't real world level, he falls short of that.

                Takam is still possibly better than any of AJ's opponents though, maybe apart from Whyte. I think AJ steam rolls Parker though and i'm not even totally sold on AJ but Parker will be wide open for that right hand.

                  Parker ain't even that good.

                  Joshua, Wilder, Fury, Klitschko, and Ortiz are the big boys...

                  Parker is basically equivalent to Jennings

                    As long as they keep him away from Ortiz, he can be want they want him to be.
