Off Topic Boxing tonight

[Ajbtiger]

I think Bakole is a better boxer then Parker and on an even playing field he would win. With no camp and jetlag he's got a few rounds to try and land something before Parker should take over.

I just don’t rate Parker. He’s never been convincing, to me anyway.

He's improved massively over the last couple of years TBF to him

It was a low base tbf.

It was a low base tbf.

I think you're being harsh on him, he's always been underrated imo, he's just, unfortunately for him ( and others ) been in and around some very good heavyweights that he'll never been as good as.

Beauty of sport though, we all see it differently

Shocking decision against adames

 

[Amin Arrears]

Bakole has raw power and decent technique, though nothing special. He was outboxed by Hunter and I think Parker will outbox him too. As Howden says, fair play to him for taking the opportunity at short notice. Would’ve liked to see Dubois vs Parker though. Do we know what’s up with Dubois?

He’s got belthoarditis. He’ll get an easier tie to defend next.

I think he was very disappointing for a long time but is finally realising his potential/ability and boxing consistently.

Come on Josh
Can’t see it like

Shocking decision against adames

To many decisions like that happening ATM unfortunately.

Bet uncle frank won't complain at those judges though like he has been recently

 

[Chazz Rheinhold]

Taking too many punches is Josh

 

[Howdentiger2]

Taking too many punches is Josh

Definitely! Doesn't look like they're hurting him to much, bar one in that last round..... As with bakole though, fair play for stepping in at such short notice and lasting this long against a very very good fighter

 

[Cityzen]

Looking at the audience it seems Saudi women don’t like boxing.

 

[GLP]

Body shots finished him off. What a great performance though, taking the fight at short notice. Brilliant effort.

I hope tonight gives him enough to help him turn full time, he deserves it

 

[Chazz Rheinhold]

Or enough n to retire ?

 

[Howdentiger2]

Or enough n to retire ?

Haha I'm sure he'd love that, but unfortunately not

 

[Cityzen]

Short and sweet.

Andy Lee has done some job with Parker. He never used to be able to punch like that and tactics are generally spot on these days.
