Parker-Takam - Winner gets AJ - Sky Sports 3 - 11am UK

[ross]

I think Parkers stamina is fine.

I also think he believed his own hype that hes a massive puncher, even the British commentators kept referring to his big power. I dont think he is such a big puncher. Minto lasted longer with Parker than he did against Whyte.

He threw the kitchen sink at Takam and was loading up on everythng thinking he could get a hi light stoppage and burnt himself out early.

He didnt look ready for a belt holder but at the same time if Joshua had fought Takam I dont think he wouldnt have looked any better.

This gives his whole team a chance to reassess where he is.

Iv already mentioned this but getting him in Furys camp as a sparring partner would do him wonders. He looked today like someone whos never been punched back and to be far he hasnt.

Hearn will want a fight between Parker and Joshua because Parker didnt look great but I dont think this fight proved that Parker is not very good I think it just proved he cant fight a world rated challenger the same way he fights domestic level journeymen.
