    The Fury vs Parker fight was not close. It was ugly but you dont get points for throwing and connecting less but you moved well.

      Nice write up. Certainly food for though.

      As the saying goes , fights are not won on paper.

      Anything can happen in a boxing ring especially so in the HW division.

      If the Ortiz that blitz Bryant Jennings shows up, Wilder could be in for a looong night.
      Not sure if that version of Ortiz is still around based on his inactivity and his other fights since the Jennings fight.


      I am still not quite sold on Joseph Parker.
      Lets see if he is up to the task of proving a lot of people wrong including me.

        Even if both these guys lose... I would love to see Jo vs Ortiz.. Even in loss they would be some of the top guys at HW.

            The more likely scenario here is Joshua vs Ortiz. Can't see Joshua losing to Parker and I can't see wilder beating Ortiz. Wilder has never fought anyone even close to Ortiz level. Ortiz win will seem like an upset but not to me. Ortiz isn't an unranked bum which is all wilder has ever fought

              Absolutely. Matter of fact, whichever way either the Wilder or Joshua fight goes down, I'd like to see Parker and Ortiz mix it up. I think the styles would make a surprisingly competitive and interesting fight.

                Wilder is at least fighting experienced, skilled guys and learning his trade. AJ has so far only fought one skilled guy.

                That makes me sway towards Wilder now.

                  Could you say who you think has skills ?

                  Ortiz has skills if he manages to fight him but other than that ?? I think those fourty "stay busy" fights could be his undoing.

                    Except OILSKIN is not beating AJ. And Ortiz is getting KTFO by Wilder.
