    Careful what you post.

      See I mostly agree with that, and I agree he’s overrated, but how can you realistically criticize his power with 20 wins/ 20 KO’s?

      So he’s not blowing people out with one-punch haymakers like Wilder, but it’s a bit of a silly thing to say given he’s knocked everyone out, regardless of which level you’d put them on.

        Give yourself an upper cut, no sane person would agree with you on that.!!! Typical deluded uk fan boy... ha ha ha
        I’m saying a couple years ago my money would have been on Chisora over all those people.

        Chisora was a very tough heavyweight, sure he’s tailed off lately, but you guys do have short memories when it comes to this ****.

          Realistically is anyone exempt from criticism ? All I'm doing is remarking as he has risen through the opposition levels his power has not been as telling. Like it or not Parker has never been down or hurt unlike guys such as C level Whyte and Breazeale and B level Takam.

          What Parker lacks in skill he more than makes up for in durability and perseverance. Which brings me back to the point I've been trying to make, this fight is closer matched than some will admit and expect.

            Yeah, I got that, I’m just trying to bring it back to reality. I’ve read it a few times on here- that AJ doesn’t have great power- but the guy so far has 100% KO ratio.

            What would concern me about Parker is his durability, like you say, but also his work rate and stamina. He’s going to keep throwing and trying to walk AJ down. Can AJ keep his composure, hold the centre of the ring or fight off the back foot if needed? Can he keep up with that work rate? Will he fade and get tagged? It’s a possibility.
