Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker: Camp Has Been Great, Heading To UK on Friday

[P4Pdunny]

great camp but he's getting dropped

[sportbuddha]

6 weeks?

lol 2 weeks is fine.

he'll be perfectly adjusted after a few days.

For a red bus tour or visiting Buckingham Palace maybe, I’m just saying if I was having the biggest night of my life, I would have acclimatised for longer.

6 weeks is still too much to sacrifice ur optimal home training camp conditions just to get acclimated - something your body could do easily in one week tops.

I think 2 weeks is perfect. If he's mentally most comfortable training in New Zealand, then there's no reason to come over during the PEAK of your training camp to UK.

Then he would have to sacrifice maybe up to a week of hard training. usually training camps are no more than 12 weeks, as you don't wanna burn your body out, and overtrain.

Around the 6 week point - that's when you're at the heart, and the peak of camp.

usually the last 2 weeks are just strategy with light sparring for that last week maybe, then the last week no sparring just strategy and staying ready.

Parker ain't the best boxer, but he is tough as nails. Joshua could be in for a big shock, I know all his gay fanboys will be when parkers still there after being hit by Joshua. Better hope his power is as good as they say, cause parkers chin is better.

AJs power is average at best. 1 clean, 1 punch knock out his whole career. If he comes in light without his steroid mass it will probably be below average.

Should be great fight

You are the most clueless one around here mate. Average power and steroid mass? Yeah keep telling yourself that if it helps ya sleep better.

I bet you are one of those fanboys that think AJ's unnaturally low body fat and high muscle mass is from good genetics.
Inherited from his obese fat a$$ parents!!!

AJ the one with a long history of getting dropped.

This will be a good fight, and Parker will be a huge test for AJ.

Parker's biggest strength is his granite chin - he's rarely been troubled in his pro career. Mind you, he's never faced power like AJ's.

The Fury fight was a great example of styles not meshing - Parker can stand and trade, and is very willing to. Fury didn't want a bar of it and ran. AJ is a much more stationary target, and while he has good movement, it's not exactly elite.

A lot of this fight is going to come down to whether Parker can withstand the power - because he will be eating some shots - and whether AJ has a plan in place if he doesn't blow Parker out.
