Comments Thread For: Hearn: Can Parker Handle Pressure of Huge Pro-Joshua Crowd?

[Fabes88]

Truth is Eddie he may he may not .Sell this contest as you might it's mediocre at best.........and you know it!

Lol there’s more than one fight to be made in the heavyweight division. This is one of the top 3 fights that can be made quit *****ing. It’s a heavyweight unification fight between two undefeated fighters and all you do is complain like your boy wilder has given us anything better

[thack]

Seriously what's the problem with this unification fight against a guy with ambition? Some people here are impossible to please

Seriously did you see Parker v one of the weakest British heavyweights Hughie Fury .....obviously not or you would feel the same way .....mediocre fight where Eddie will sucker you all in and sell it as Ali v Frazier.....I hope it is but I know it won't be.

There will be more preasure on AJ than on Parker, cause he will fight at home, infront of his fans.

Great match up between two unbeaten champions, both who have taken challenges in not a huge amount of fights and this is another big name on the resume for one of them. Will probably sell more tickets than any other matchup first 1/2 of next year, and a fair few Ppv to go alongside. I’m looking forward to it!

Pressure to perform better for Joshua , yes .

Nervous pressure is going to fall on the shoulders of Parker .

Joshua said he felt the least nervous in the Klitchko fight walking out to 90 thousand and you could see it .

Parker freezes himself in press conferences that combined with actually having to face the 6'6er ,it will no doubt have some effect on him in his first unsettling surroundings that is going to dwarf what hes used too both in atmosphere and opponent .

Eddie Hearn, promoter of IBF, IBO, WBA heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (20-0, 20 KOs), is not convinced that WBO champion Joseph Parker (24-0, 18 KOs) will be able to deal with a massive pro-Joshua on fight night. A deal is nearly complete for Joshua and Parker to fight each other, potentially on March 31 from Principality in Cardiff, Wales.

It doesnt matter who gives a **** its a meaningless fight the guy is a ****ing joke,if it was old school days nobody would give a **** about this journeyman,hearn as usual trying to hype up a fight to the 50/50 mark

This is another 90/10 in favour of joshua no hoper fight hes just using the casuals to ride this money train until the wheels fall off

Just give Wilder what he wants and give the true boxing fans something to look forward to instead of More meaningless crap and the clean up the rest of the division until something else comes up thats a close competition

At least then we'd know joshua was the Read deal and just to see this guy would be a privelidge we dont wanna pay for some 90/10 fight i havent paid for any of his box office except the klit fight and i wont again until its Wilder in there with him

Who’s this wilder guy? Just looked him on wiki, according to boxrec the toughest opponent he has had is rank 14 - duhaupus? He’s even lost 4 fights! Wtf? He’s had 40 fights and he is his toughest fight? No way we want these ****ty fights, would be too easy for Joshua.

So Joshua defeating Wilder will THEN warrant the Parker mismatch ? lol

You also realise the Wilder fight isnt possible until summer 2018 right ?

Of course he should get the real fights out of the way then he just takes on all comers after but he should be putting an authoritive stamp on the division while he can instead of mismatches

Then you cant really critisize but while theres a real threat it seems you can critisize his opponent choice

You realise he needs to defeat Parker to put a stamp on the division bc a belt is on the line right ?

Who would you like him to fight in March you deem not a mismatch ?

Because i got to tell you they ALL have about the same chance as Parker .
