He might be the best of the current crop of heavyweight up-and-comers. He has the size, dexterity, and speed. What's your take?

Was a heavy KO he scored the other night but hes fighting pub standard fighters over there in Kiwi land at present.
Looks very slow to me when you compare him to the rising young fighters coming through.
He needs to fuck New Zealand off and start fighting at least fighters who are proven durable.
I think he's done alright with the level of opposition he has taken on, he has beaten Minto who isn't total crap and he took on Sherman Williams too who is certainly durable but a bit fat. I think the level of opposition is pretty similar to Joshuas and other heavyweight prospects. He's taking on Kali meehan next which might be interesting as he has had some good performances over his career, although I do think he has been ko'd a few times and is well into his 40s now :S
I think he is on par with other prospects around his level. The Meehan clash is another step up. They seem to be trying to build up a decent following for him in New Zealand and the Trans-Tasman interrelationship between NZ and Oz (i.e. Tupou, Meehan) is adding to that. I don't think it will be long before he heads overseas.
He doesn't look like no Anthony Joshua to me but he can certainly punch.
incidentally he has two common opponents with Dillian Whyte - Costa Junior and Nascimento. Between them they didn't last three rounds with Whyte. Nascimento took Parker 7 and Costa Junior took him 4 (although did end up kipping).
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
He still hasn't shown anything bad so far and his power has proven to still be efficient as he steps up. Just would've liked to see him continue the stp ups after Minto
At this point isn't a Joseph Parker vs Lucas Browne fight the biggest thing that could happen Down Under?
Looking at the shot that Parker hit Tupou with , did it even land?
