Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker: After My Next Fight There Are A lot of Big Fights That We Can Make

[pollywog]

Why couldn't any big fights be made now after a stay busy fight with Leapai? Why do we not have an opponent four weeks out. David Higgins was talking up the quality of the opponent so what gives. I expect this fight to be rubbish and a waste of time.

Leapai filled in on 2 weeks notice after Eric Molina chickened out.

Parker can't find quality opponents cos everyone is too scared to fight him.

Parker is that good!

He went toe to toe with Andy Ruiz (the fit version) and beat him, and became the heavyweight champ of the world. Something AJ failed at.

AJ was too scared to go toe to toe with blimp version of Ruiz.

And you are forgetting that Parker was too scared to go toe to toe with AJ hahah. Also, AJ outlanded Ruiz almost 2 to 1 in the rematch, hardly someone who is afraid.

Parker is one of the top 4 best in the division which is why none of the 'ok guys' want to fight him.

They know they'd probably lose...

You mean like Chisora??? Or are you one of those who actually believe the "spider bite" excuse?

Dunno what fight you were watching, but AJ was doing most of the back pedaling, was looking to the ref to break it up in the clinch, who gladly obliged and was looking for every opportunity to catch a rest from Parker.

Your memory is more a dream than anything champ.

Chisora doesn't want any of Parkers smoke, he never did. All that a side more money crap he pulled in the pressers was just quacking to duck Parker.

He'd rather chase down a jumped up cruiser in Usyk than a real heavy in Parker.

I don't really blame him cos he'd lose to Parker but has punchers chance against Usyk .

I like Parker, want to see him do well but he's not in many entertaining fights. He's athletic, has some pop and appears to have a chin. At most levels he will do just enough to win (Leapai, Cojanu, Ruiz, Takam, Fury, etc) and at higher levels do just enough to lose (AJ, Whyte),

His approach to fights will make this the standard form for most matxhups. The irony is that I think he could be much more than he is but it's just not in him.

Did u watch the whyte fight?. The only reason that fight was close was because of an illegal head butt by whyte. Nothing higher level about whyte

And whyte been running from rematch ever since

Parker could have won vs aj if it weren't for the referee blocking any action on his side.

Chisora is a strange fighter...not extremely good, perhaps, but always ready for war. He can be difficult for any boxer (but Fury).

I'd like to see Parker vs Usyk.

Trying to re write history again numb nuts ..... Parker got a controversial “win” on his bike vs Ruiz . Was not toe to toe at all . Home cooking

Parker then fought like a s**thouse vs Joshua to a wide ud then out worked by a game whyte

Shame he jibbed on the chisora fight or he would have another L on his record

[lion33lit]

Parker? Spider? Must be radioactive. Oh, he’ll be just fine - even better now!

I agree the ref denied Parker the in close fighting. We all know Joshua can't in fight the first Ruiz fight showed this. The refs protect AJ in the UK that's why he hardly fights away and this was proved in the States where he wasn't protected by the refs. AJ will not fight in the States again. Against Whyte Parker was given a bad decision in the early rounds had Whyte all but finished in the last round and in my book wins a rematch. Parker for me is in the top 5 heavyweight figters today.
