    Glad they got it made. Parker wasn't going to walk away from the sort of money the AJ fight brings. It was just a matter of agreeing on what was his bottom line. Parker needs to be super aggressive and try to bomb AJ out early. I really don't see him out boxing Joshua. Not with his tendency to go backwards or with his back to the ropes.

    The press conference had a proper David and Goliath feel to it. The huge AJ/Hearn conglomerate against the used car salesman and his farmhand.

    If it wasn't for the pathetic anti-AJ/Hearn mob it would be nice if the little fellas pulled the upset.

    Povetkin (AJ mandatory this year) offered a slot on the undercard against Chisora or Price.

    Poor Price will be a kip inside a minute, Chisora takes a beating. Either way, as the fans turn a blind eye to their favourites that get caught cheating, and the powers that be (governing bodies, TV networks, promoters) no longer care, Povetkin is the biggest test out their for AJ (depending what happens between Wilder-Ortiz).

    Parker himself didn't exactly look confident to me, he's even asked Fury to walk him into the ring.
    Maybe it's because Parkers pretty unknown but there didn't seem to be any sort of buzz at all about that press conference.
    Hope Parker comes out swinging, has a real go and doesn't choke.

    Parker's team clutching at straws in my book. Higgins (Sober for a change) saying Parker has "greater Mental Strength and better footwork". Well to me, Parker looked understandably nervous , and as for the footwork thing, I've seen nothing to back that up in his last few fights. Don't be mistaken into thinking AJ is a muscle bound Plodder , there's more to him than that.

    This is an easy fight for AJ, Parker is cashing in at the right time. Hope he makes enough out of the fight to ease the beating he will take.

    An offer made to David Price to face Alexander Povetkin on the undercard of Anthony Joshua v Joseph Parker on March 31 looks set to have a knock-on effect for WBC ruler Deontay Wilder.
