I just performed a styles analysis on Joshua vs Parker

I like boxing.

 

Parker is definitely not a scrub. Time will tell whether he can take Joshua’s punch though. It’s one thing to get hit by guys like old man Botha and hughie fury and quite another to get hit by Joshua

 

Parker is shite. The reason why is he interesting is that Joshua is also shite. The prognostigator of all time in this thread two weeks ago had Wilder laid out by Ortiz: a man Wilder sent to A&E.

That's why I love this board.

Wilder was almost laid out by Ortiz and was losing the fight. His power is what bailed him out of trouble.

A British boxing analyst by the name of “Hart” once said...

“There are no certainties in sport, least of all boxing, least of all Heavyweight boxing. When those big guys get together ONE PUNCH can turn defeat into victory”.

That’s what happened.

 

That's silly

It happens in all the weight classes

 

Final Predictions?

Parker is LIVE and so nothing would surprise me but if I had to pick, gimme Joshua by TKO 9. I think he busts Parker up and stops him on his feet.

 

What's with you guys and the heavyweights? No one interested in this fight?

 

Heavyweights are bad pretty much

Joshua should beat this dude clearly

 

I got Joshua. I think he's better. If Parker's chin holds up, he'll have a chance the longer this goes, though. Joshua's stamina is shit, and his much vaunted 'power' isn't all it is cracked up to be.

The first round will be dull as dishwater, both men having a look. Joshua will open up with some of those 1-2's he mainly throws, and try to pick Parker off at length. Parker will look pretty small compared to AJ, so I'd imagine the plan is to pin him back with the jab and throw lots of straight rights to keep him honest. Presuming he doesn't fold, I'd expect him to start gambling around seven or eight, throwing caution to the wind as Joshua's muscles rob him of oxygen as usual. The question will be whether he is good enough to do anything when that happens. He might be, but he probably isn't.

If Joshua stops him early, I'll be impressed. I think it ends late, most likely Joshua by accumulation stoppage around the 10th.

Not really. I'm interested in Joshua-Wilder, but quite honestly, IDGAF about Joshua-Parker.

Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely gonna watch it, but can't say I'm super pumped for it.

The next fight I'm looking forward to is Lara-Hurd.

 

Yeah I don't see an early stoppage either. AJ isn't that kind of puncher.

At best, I see him getting Parker outta there in the mid rounds. But if Parker holds up under the power, yeah he has a chance to do something late.

I think AJ's height/range, jab, and right hands will eventually fold Parker, whom just gets hit too much to win this IMO. I watched highlights of Parker's fight with Hughie Fury and I wasn't sold. He has some nice hand speed but little else. His defense is bad, and the decision was questionable according to those who saw the whole fight.

AJ KO 10 sounds about right.

 

I hope aj wins so he can next face big baby.

 

Yeah I like Miller, funny dude.

 

Very plausible scenario.

I actually think Joshua is a little scared and that'll work in his favour. I feel that Parker will be meeting a peak Joshua in this one.

 

Our Sport will Be 3/4ths of the Way Towards Having an UNDISPUTED Heavyweight Champion...A FAN FRIENDLY One @ That...

Of Course There's Interest...

There should be...but sadly I don't see enough on this forum.

 

1. Only 20 Fights Deeeeeeeeeeeeeep, Joshua's ALREADY Garnering Hate...

2. Elitist Attitudes in Regards to Heavyweight Boxing...

That's Why...It Is What it Is...





REED

 

For the Last Week or So, REED's Tried Wrapping his Mind Around HOW Parker Wins This...But Fact is, Dude DOESN'T Pass the Ol' Eye-Ball Test...

Considering he's Boxed Since he was 3 or 4, You'd Expect a More POLISHED Style...Parker Has Good Heavvyweight Handspeed and a Sneaky Pull Counter Right Over Lazy Left Jabs (Decent Uppercut Too), but he's Wiiiiiiide as Hell When he Throws Combinations...

And his Defense is BELOW Average...REED Can't Fathom a Subpar Defensive Fighter BEATING Joshua...

Joshua Will Have to Pass 2-3 Chin Checks, but REED Doesn't Think his Beard is Quite as Vulnerable as Advertised....Dillian Whyte (The Same Dude who Dropped Him as an Ammy) Rocked Him w/a Temple Shot and Wlad Caught Him w/1 of the 5 BEST Right Hands he's Ever Landed...

REED Doesn't Think that's EVIDENCE of a Weak Chin, However...Not Enough, Anyways...

Joshua Wins by Late Stoppage...Kevin Barry May Even Be Forced to Throw in the Towel...Parker Will Be Irrevocably Behind on Points and Will have Sustained a Hearty Beating by the 9th-10th...

Not Only is Parker Getting STOPPED Prior to the Final Bell, REED Thinks Joshua Drops him 1nce or 2wice in the Process...







REED

 

Parker's a bum.

There, I just simplified REED's post into three words.

 

Yeah the dude is awful

 

Joshua wins. This could be a bloody war if Parker fights the way he likes to, but I think his team have a game plan in mind which will be to box and move. Hopefully that doesn't happen and we get a war lasting some rounds.

Joshua is just bigger. stronger, more powerful and better.

 

Parker is a turd. Aj wins easy

 

May the best man win. Fuck it. In 100 years none of this will mean anything anyway.

 

parker's only chance of victory is to force AJ at a high pace and war and hope he can take Joshua's punches and hope AJ burns out. If Parker tries to box, AJ would win easily.

 

Parker's only shot is if Joshua gets knackered. He does seem tough though so it's not outside the realm of possibility.
