😂😂😂😂ok you win

Lol...we're all winners round here!

I would suggest the Roy Jones and Mike Tyson in the early part of their careers were each considered dominant and untouchable in their own ways which contributed to their status as legends. Those 2 in particular brought something to the table that was unique and never seen before. I don’t think we can say the same for Joshua. He has looked suspect in a number of his fights and I think very few people see him having that air of invincibility that Roy or Mike had.

I’d say if he loses, he’s done as a top heavyweight.

agree, RJJ and Tyson looked invinsible, mowed through there opponents. josh never had that invinsibility about him. always look vunerable.
the only fighter at the moment i can say looks pretty flawless is bud crawford. every round ive seen, he was always in control of the fight tempo and attack. he is truly fluid.

Dont get me wrong, i think Parkers a good fighter, but has he got that real commitment to be heavyweight champion. Things happen in boxing, maybe he was concussed, i dont know about that, but he really shouldve beaten Whyte, that set him back, and fans aren't clamouring for a rematch. I think him vs Wilder is interesting, because he has a chin, power, and can fight at a pace Ortiz couldn't. I'd tune in for that.

Yeah I’ve been wanting that fight for a while. Parker is young but has experience, and he’s a big tough Islander guy with a good chin. He has as good a chance as anyone today at getting up from Wilder’s right, and he knows how to swarm as well as anyone today, albeit nothing like some of yesterday’s fighters. I think Wilder probably wins, but Parker has a good chance. I think he at least gives Wilder a few uneasy moments like Fury did when he got up. You could tell that shook Wilder a bit. For a few seconds, he was no longer an unstoppable god in his own mind, just a guy who could hit really, really hard.

Then he will be 22-2 (21KO).

I think AJ needs to be more worried about his chin, he's been hurt several times and that makes him vulnerable to any HW.

Good to see you are still alive and kicking. Always a pleasure reading your nonsense🤫

I warned you but you wouldn't listen...
Joshua braces for impact when he gets hit and needs to be more fluid in the ring. I still believe it was a mistake to have an immediate rematch with Ruiz, but hopefully Joshua puts up a good fight and hopefully both fighters come out ok. Big fight for Ruiz to prove his doubters wrong...

Go back and watch him beat Ruiz fairly and squarely to become heavyweight champion.

Oilskin had the faster hands then, but since has undergone elbow surgery that for ages meant he couldn't throw straight rights and settled for overhand ones. That dramatically reduced his knockout ratio.

Imagine windmill if he couldn't throw a straight right?

Fact is, Parker fought once this year against a tough Leapai who as a matter of Samoan pride refused to take a knee but got battered every single round.

That was after Molina knew a loss to Parker was the end of his road so bailed and NO ONE was willing to step up for the challenge except Leapai.

Oilskin is getting ducked and shafted by Fast Eddie for a reason. That reason being he is better than 99.9% of heavies out there doing the rounds.

Trouble is concussions and injuries are part of the game. Joshua supposedly was concussed going into the Ruiz fight. Hes has shoulder surgery. Wilder has injured hes biceps shoulders hands. Haye did hes ankle, its all in the game. But Parker hasnt performed when it comes to the big one. Hes laid back. Surely you can see hes lack of urgency. Nobody is ducking, people have fought him, three high level guys i can think of. But he is where he is because he came up short.

I agree, we need to see Deontay against some young game guys, and guys who can punch.Ortiz couldn't fight at any kind of pace, couldnt recover, and Fury, although i thought he won, isnt really a dangerous puncher. Guys like Parker and Ruiz pit Wilder against things we haven't seen before, despite the media proclaiming him as the greatest puncher of all time via a knockout of old Ortiz.

[BoZz]

Nothing would happen, he can wait till February and watch Fury whoop wilder, he can fight wilder the loser then and fury can fight ruiz jr, I doubt ruiz jr would be that dumb to fight a slick smart fighter like Fury straight away because he knows he would get his ears boxed off, fury ain't joshua. Anyway, joshua could face wilder sometime in may next year and lose again, he'd make millions again...who cares about another loss..but I totally forgot tho, wilder is scared shi**less of joshua for some reason lol...didn't he deny a 100+mill pay day because he was scared lol
