Not sure what kind of backing he would have got in the UK, especially having not even medalled at the Commonwealth games. I have posted previously a comparison chart on many top heavys inc Joshua & Parker ... why do you think Joseph would have had it a lot tougher when Joshua hasn't ?

JP needs fight David Haye now for credibility, JP said himself he is ready for Wilder Fury and Klit. I see the focus in British circles is on Haye Vs Joshua. Joshua says he is not yet ready for the bigtime, that is Wilder, Fury or Klit., I expect he's taking sound advice or has a wise head on young shoulders. Areola has been offered good money multiple times - as has Cunningham. Thompson or Mansour as his first southpaw - not a chance .. Kassi i like but want him to notch a win up first. Haye is a dangerous opponent make no mistakes about it .. lets see how things unfold .. I think Joshua fights Chisora next then Haye as they are both local blockbusters. Chisora has been ordered to fight Helenius but i cant see this fight happening - Chisora is promoted by Sauerlands who Helenius has been at war with and the very reason he has been innactive to as long as he has. He holds the IBF International title and I think he will head in that direction (why wouldnt you) .. RE: Joseph Parker - Stu Duncan - 01-19-2016 (01-18-2016, 06:38 PM)shamrock Wrote: To be honest Goth I didnt see the Martin fight so I cant venture an opinion. A strong nz boxing identity suggested to me just a few days ago he considered Jo as vunerable to being upset badly when he actually does stepup as his record is propped with mismatches and public deceiving agendas. It was also stated as coming from Klits coach that Izu was the superior fighter in the Duco stable and produced better tactical sparring than Jo did. Sham ... I have posted a chart here with 5 or 6 legends of the division inc Ali & Tyson and their first 17 fights and Parkers is on par and in some cases better than all of these guys .. so i guess what whoever this strong NZ boxing identity is - he is insinuating that Ali Tyson and others who have gone onto become legends of the division all had records at the same time against mismatches with public deceiving agenda's? I am not Joes trainer but I am close with the K2 & KMG camp / group and what was said regarding izu producing better tactical sparring than Joe is the first I've heard of it and it certainly wasnt the feedback given to me .. Both Martin & Glazkov looked terrible for as long as it lasted.

Also each team has their own strategies and may have already mapped out a plan. Jamieson .. That is ludicrous that we would identify opponents then travel to their backyard? Show me where any of the big names in the division have done that. With the level of corruption and biased judges - why on earth in your right mind would you consider doing that? Joe has just turned 24 and has racked up 17 fights .. Why should Duco give up any of their control ? They have invested plenty and positioned him perfectly to date. Some get on the 'but who has he fought bandwagon' and I once again refer to the comparison chart I have done. Why is it people want him thrown under a bus (taking unnecessary risks) .. he is being brought along to the satisfaction on his team and is gaining notoriety around the world with his name being bantered with Joshua's as being the best prospects in the division. RE: Joseph Parker - jamieson1 - 01-19-2016 Arreola may have been offered good money several times but it would have only been appealing to him after the 2nd Stiverne fight. Most fighters take a confidence builder after getting knocked out so I can understand Arreola taking the Harper fight over a Parker clash. His next 2 fights have been on Showtime and NBC. Surely he would be making similar money and getting good exposure without having to travel. Same thing with Cunningham. A Parker fight would have only been interesting after the Fury KO. Again he took a re-builder against Quezada and that was still on NBC. His 4 fights after that were all on NBC, HBO or Spike. Again similar money, good exposure without traveling. Did team Parker consider traveling to the US to make those fights? I doubt it for the very same reasons Arreola and Cunningham turned down the offers. He can make good money without having to travel. Yeah Thompson and Mansour would be risks but both are in their 40s and Parker is supposedly a top ten guy according to some alphabet trash. There used to be a time when fighters would challenge themselves. There's no chance because you don't won't to burst your money maker bubble just yet. Take a page out of Inoue or Betebiev's book. Kassi arguably won his last two fights and is more credible than anyone on Parker's record. Botha had lost 4 in a row coming in...

Also each team has their own strategies and may have already mapped out a plan. Are you saying Parker is a big name in the division? I'm just pointing out the very same facts that these fighters are probably thinking to yourselves. Your the one stating that all these fighters have turned down offers. No one wants Parker thrown under the bus, we want him developed properly. Using the 'unnecessary risks" line you sound like Angel Garcia talking about Porter and Thurman fighter when they could be fighting a Salka type. I understand it's a business but it's also a big part of whats wrong with the game these days. No one is arguing that Parker is one of the best prospects in the division but there are a handful or more prospects with similar records and until we see them facing some real adversity in the ring we don't really know how good they are.

Surely he would be making similar money and getting good exposure without having to travel.Yours is simply an opinion - you mentioned Areola and I answered with the facts. Now your giving me your reasoning as to why he wouldnt take it? why post that he should be facing him if you know why he isnt? i have already answered why we wouldnt challenge and travel to their backyard so im not going to waste my time repeating myself. I explained in detail why not, yet you come out with a lame response like not bursting the money making bubble? You have an answer for everything and dont take responses into consideration .. 'yes mate i hadnt thought of it from that perspective' - not you - you just continue to blow bubbles. You appear to know everything - me Im just trying to contribute and give my opinion .. I will leave it upto you to answe the questions from here on in ... RE: Joseph Parker - Kiwi - 01-19-2016 Thanks, Stu. We actually do appreciate having Joe's Matchmaker come on here. It is tremendous for us fans. So thankyou again. Regarding the posters here who are whining about Joe's record... Fight afficionados from around the world have taken a good look and consistently ranked Joe as one of the 2 or 3 best prospects. Why don't we just let 2016 play out before whining some more? They say he will step up this year. I believe it. Why not let Parker prove himself this year and wait to comment then? -Kiwi |
