Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker Blasts Out Solomon Haumono, Ready For Joshua

Im watching it on a crappy stream, so I cant see the punches very cleanly, but it looks like he gets hit too often.

Other than that, good handspeed and jab

Parker way too slow getting touched repeatedly by a 40 year old bum

Haumano landed multiple power shots in a very even 4 rounds until the ko.

Parker is not ready

What a crap fight.

Apparently it was $40.00 on SkySports, who would pay to watch a **** show?

Joshua would demolish Parker, sorry.

Josh having easier fights and generally not being tested but seems more ready than Parkers and and whytes and brazeales of this world. .
Has josh better trainers or something?

So far, Joshua has beaten 4 undefeated fighters plus Kevin Johnson who isn't undefeated but went the distance with Vitali Klitschko, AJ blasted him out.

At this stage, Joshua's resume is better than Parkers.

Just watched this on youtube: very impressed with Parkers foot and handspeed but most of all his ring generalship ; the footwork was a little off in the first round as Haumono was able to cut the ring off rather quickly but its expected as both men are fresh. Second round Parker started to establish ring generalship by standing his ground letting of combinations to the head and body as Haumono tried to get in range to work in the inside but Parker would immediatly tie him up spin / side step evading the attack. Joseph needs to tighten his guard against the right hand Solomon was landing frequently coming over the jab and with overhands straight from the opening bell.

Side note: he has one of the best fluid uppercuts in the HW division. Hes going to be in danger in the first few rounds vs. any HW that can punch but his pace and excellent punch selection will break a lot of these HW's down and make it a lot more even once his work sets in...however he has shown issues with his own stamina so once he no longer is able to move around it would get complicated regardless he has great potential to be a champion...speed and defense is the key vs these bigger men.

Being undefeated means nothing in 2016 unless you have fought the top. Almost every prospect I see touted as the next big thing is undefeated even though some of them go on to never hit top 20 when they get real fights.

Joshua's resume is not as good. I'm a fan of both, probably like AJ more... I think AJ will have the more spectacular career but I think Parker has more upside. He's younger, looks to have a much better chin and has less reliance on his power. Parker is in front of resume though. Takam is much better than anyone Joshua has faced.
