    Comments Thread For: Parker Confident He Can Win Decision Over Joshua in the UK

    Recent history has made Joseph Parker confident he can win a decision against Anthony Joshua on Saturday night. In just his last fight, New Zealand's Parker traveled to the United Kingdom and won a majority decision over British challenger Hughie Fury. The United States' John Madfis (118-110) and England's Terry O'Connor (118-110) scored their 12-round fight for Parker, while American Rocky Young had it even (114-114) on September 23 in Manchester, England.

    Take the judges out of the picture, crack the giant robots glass jaw and watch him fall over.

    AJ is there to be hit, unlike baby hughie...

    Joshua can only dream the movement both Fury cousins have in being able to shuck and jive their way out of trouble in the ring.

    He's got bigger muscles though. The best that science can buy!!!

        I cant see it being a scorecard fight in all honesty. BUT..

        1. you arent winning on scorecards unless its a shut out.
        This is AJ in britain with more belts and more money generating ability.

        2. based on what ive seen... even the robotic plod of AJ has a higher technical ceiling than gung-ho come forward parker.

            The judges were fair to him before so this b**ching might annoy them into being biased for round 2

                Technical ceiling?

                Haha...good one!

                AJ"s limited movement, basic footwork, lack of stamina and slower hand speed lowers his ceiling to canvas level.

                Which is where he's gonna end up. Flat out on it!

                  I actually think most of the time, judges are honest and score what they see. There have been tons of robberies and really bad cards, but more often than not judges score the fight right. But it being in England, every time Joshua connects with anything, the crowd will go wild. Judges are human, and if all things are equal how can you ignore the raw emotion in a packed house?

                  Parker needs to take the crowd out of the picture. He needs to be effective early and often and keep the pro-Joshua legion at bay. I bet he could get a decision then. If it is a close fight and the crowd is into it, I see Joshua getting the benefit of doubt.

                    A decent crack to the face is what we Samoans need sometimes, just to wake us up!

                    Y'all have no idea how much we love and can handle pain...

                    Just ask UFC legend, Mark 'The Super Samoan' Hunt!
