Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: I Took Parker's Shots, Beat His Speed, Hurt Him

[hugh grant]

I think Joshua's knees might have dipped at some point in the 5th or 6th after he got clipped, but he wasn't really hurt I don't think.

The ref saved Joshua. Who did get hurt a couple of times.

Wonder what josh would reply to this? But boixers are poker faced during and after fight. So josh won't let on.
I'm sure Trevor berbick would claim Tyson didn't hurt him

Yeah and you're a liar. Post video clips *******.

Crazy how we were told this was going to be a war yet the ref wouldn't let the fighters go toe-to-toe. Joshua was always going to outbox Parker and deserved the win but I will always wonder what the fight could have been.

Seeing the refereeing for this and previously Takam, Wilder should be worried about fighting Joshua in Britain.

It was also one of the most disrepectful crowds I have ever been in, relentlesssly booing the non-UK fighters even when the fights were over.

It deserved booing with that ****ing ridiculous 10 minute new Zealand bull**** anthem.

Hurt him? With what exactly?

[Saigon]

I scored the fight 7-5 for Parker to be honest. Joshua didn't hurt Parker once in that fight. I'm not going to say it was a robbery because the rounds were close so I wasn't disappointed that AJ won. I was more disappointed that those judges were drunk and on crack when they handed in those scorecards.

The only decent shot landed was the left hook when Parker was dipping down rushing in

Joshua couldn’t miss with that shot .... the jab was decent

Have to agree it was a s**t fight to watch but that has a lot to do with how negative Parker was and how s**t the ref was . If you watch Joshua’s previous fights his best combos come when getting out the clinch . Ref was too keen and ruined it for both men

Joshua still walked it though . It wasn’t close as some clowns are making out . Parker was walked around the ring and outpointed easy .

***** does the same and it’s a master class , smh

Couple of solid left hooks landed.

I'd believe Parker. Only caught him coming in a few times. Moved away.

Same way I'd imagine Fred Kassi probably hurt Hughie Fury more than Joseph Parker.

I'll never forget that look of sheer terror when Parker was chasing Joshua around the ring a couple of times and all AJ could do was back track with his arm out to keep oilskin away while making pleading eyes at the ref to call a break and save his ass...

I saw that as well. And he busted Parker's eye with an elbow not a punch. SMH

boring fight, parkers movement had Joshua a bit confused but parker had nothing for AJ at the end of the day, AJ did some things good technique wise but he doesn't move his head and due to his stamina issue he wont fully open up. if he doesn't fight wilder next he should fight a big puncher to see how his chin holds up because he is there to be hit with a straight right after round 4, it just takes the right fighter.

Both fighters looked to scared to take risks and it was a boring fight. Parker chased AJ around the ring at one point and was in retreat mode. Instead of retreating that was the time to stand your ground and make it a war as promised!!
