Anthony Joshua vs Joseph Parker: What The Hell Was That?

[Laligalaliga]

The only reason i see is cause AJ was more of a cash cow to fight. Plus alot of Wilders fights fell thru.

So, now whose fault is it?
This is just his 21st fight and he already is a unified champ.
AJ is not getting the recognition he deserve to get for his achievements within short period.

Maybe because the heavyweight division is **** at the moment and he really is not that good.
Wait to guys like Gassiev and Usyk move up in weight then their will be decent compitition.

Parker came to sell his belt, not get hurt and that was a moral victory for him. I didn’t think he had any ambition of winning last night. The ref was terrible as rightly pointed out. AJ had to do what he had to not to gas out. He did what he had to do to get the belt off Parker. On to the next one.

I think even I was a bit harsh on him last night, the reality and fact was he has 3 belts now in only his 21st fight. That is a great achievement.

well, while we are waiting, train cannot stop moving... It's always on motion.
It will be unfortunate for wilder if he looses his pay day.
No fighter in the HWD can guarantee wilder up to 10mil for a fight, not even wilder himself.
Looking at it from business angle from AJ's angle, fighting wilder now is bad business for hearn. When AJ KO wilder now, it is assumed he has conquered the division. His fight will not draw huge ppv anymore.
Wilder hype is putting more money in the pocket for AJ and hearn.

yeah. ... Don't ignore the IBO, it's also part of the belts at stake.
He is got 4 belts.

Exactly right. **** Hearn and his money making ways.
He will put this fight of too long and either fighter will get a lose then so much or fight of the year.
AJ/Wilder needs to happen next.

I hope so too. But personally I think team wilder is the major obstacle. They want to rack up as much money as they can but hearn is also a money monger, that's where I see the challenge.
Both fighters are always ready when called upon.

Their styles don't mesh well, fight almost put me to sleep.
