    In before 20 idiots saying it's a walk over.

    Parker is the first iron chin AJ will have faced, will also be by a mile the best jab/puncher he has faced too. Amazing fight.

      Hes got it all to do to get past Dimitrenko, I dont rate his boxing ability and his handspeed faded quite early vs Takam, hes not a big and powerful heavyweight and needs to fight smarter than perhaps Kevin Barry can help him with

        I'm not sold on Joshua yet but i think he beats Parker without breaking a sweat.

            I would probably push for this fight if i was Team Parker, Joshua IMO would get better and you don't want him when he gets better.

              That is a pretty contradictory statement lol

              I know what you mean about not totally being sold on Joshua (although he is looking more and more like the business)

              But if you think he beats Parker without breaking a sweat, than you should be sold, because Parker is very good. I think its a good fight - and will be Joshua's second fight against a guy with good talent and ability after Whyte, and to be fair I think he is a step up from Whyte too.

              I think the smart money is Joshua by stoppage but Parker will test him, he has fast hands.

                This is what I think.

                Joshua won the belt a touch early.

                  If Parker is conditioned properly and works on his stamina not that I am even sure he needs to go into the latter rounds versus Joshua he wins.

                  The guy has world class power along with durability. We saw as Joshua stepped up to C class opponents is power is not as telling, Whyte and Breazele showed the punches weren't as damaging as they were against the low level scrubs Joshua has sold the British on.

                  Parker has easily the fastest hand speed, power, durability and skill set AJ will have ever come up against, if anything the one who is not ready is Joshua. I can see the reluctance of Hearn wanting to put his cash cow in with an absolutely destroyer like Parker, they must be desperate to slow the tenacity of Parker by having him face the huge punching Price take away that raw fearlessness aura he currently poses, Hearn is a shirker clearly Joshua knows his limitations too after what Price and Whyte did to him.

                    Some legit points made so let's make the fight against 2 young lions of the division. Parker is the best opponent AJ will have faced. Breazeale is ok but i doubt he beats any of the top 10 heavyweights. I think Parker is going to crush Dimitrenko within 4 rounds...
