Parker will be a better win for Joshua then Ortiz was for Wilder

Well I was really unimpressed with Parker when he fought against Andy Ruiz. Also it appears to me that Parker really doesn't have much punching power with his last 3 fights going the distance. At least we know Ortiz can hit. Also he was south paw which can be awkward for some people.

Wlad is a better win for AJ than Ortiz was for Wilder.

Wlad is a better win for AJ than Ortiz was for Wilder.

Agreed but Ortiz is for sure a better fighter than Parker. Ortiz was always seen as a threat for any HW because of his skills. Parker was always seen as the weak title holder that could easily be beaten.

What a dumb fucking thread/post... Ortiz doesn’t suffer from being a mediocre boxer, that counts for a lot more than whatever Parker’s strengths are.

Parker holds a title, so whatever that's worth these days it automatically makes it a better win in that sense. Ortiz has skills but no one believes he's 38. The thing I will give Parker credit for is being clean

If a guy can avoid nearly getting ko'd and score impressive ko it usually means they win big. It's been used more negative in case of AJ but with Wilder I've heard people talking like he stormed the beach because he simply survived a test. Consistency and breaking opponent down ending in unification is a far better win for a fighter.

How slim does Joshua look here? Could be the camera, angle, light, but he looks 'skinny'

I dont have a problem with Parker, he's a decent bloke who tries really hard but I dont see him having any chance whatsoever. Assuming Joshua doesnt completely blow up or loose a leg mid fight. I just dont see what Parker does that causes Joshua a problem.

Parker got a hometown decision in that fight. Ruiz Jr. won that to me.
