I think his desire is there, it's his discipline to do what it takes with his body and mind. And diet. His loyalty to KB will also hurt his progress. I thought he did ok against both AJ and Whyte. Given his novice mistakes, that's hard to believe, but true.

Joe's other problem is that the alphabets have forgotten him, and he's gonna have to climb back up the ladder. As Mr Higgins says, three good (meaning KO's) wins will do it.

First up should be Chisora in the UK. Chisora will teach Joe how to handle a rough fighter, it'll be in front of UK fans, and Chisora will hype the hell out of it.


RE: Joseph Parker - bart - 09-24-2018

Chisora would be good but the 3rd fight of the 3.. he needs to get a confidence fight then a builder b4 Del
BTW JP v Delboy in london is a decent earner as well

Bart, who would you choose for Joe's next two fights?


RE: Joseph Parker - bart - 09-24-2018

not sure Die possibly the Chinese fighter? might be good value over there

Stay away from Hughie if he wins v Pulev horrible style match
I would really like a Whyte rematch but has JP learned...


RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 09-24-2018

How about Browne for some $$$, cross the ditch rivalry, and pretty easy to put together?

Ustinov
Browne
Whyte (after he loses to AJ in April)  Tongue


RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 09-24-2018

Why Ustinov?

I'd go with Browne (NZ or OZ), Miller (US) (if you can get him), and Chisora (UK). Why not travel the world?

Boxing: Anthony Joshua's demolition of Alexander Povetkin highlights Joseph Parker's quality

By: Patrick McKendry

Alexander Povetkin has gone the way of 95 per cent of Anthony Joshua's other professional opponents – finished within the distance – a result that, while not all that surprising, does shine a positive light on Joseph Parker's performance against the man with the sledgehammer right hand.

At the age of 39, Povetkin looked anything but washed up as he charged at Joshua with leaping left hooks and overhand rights from the first bell.

He got success there too, with blood trickling from Joshua's nose after the early exchanges, but such is the 28-year-old Englishman's accuracy and power and youthful energy that the brutal stoppage in the seventh round was as inevitable as Tyson Fury slagging him off afterwards.

It was the first time that Povetkin, a tough former Olympic gold medallist, had been stopped in 36 professional fights. The only other man to beat him as a professional is Wladimir Klitschko.

This was a performance and a result that Joshua needed to not only retain his three recognised world titles, but to draw a line under his last fight against Parker in April.

That fight at Cardiff's Principality Stadium was more chess match that bar-room brawl – a relatively sedate state of affairs helped by the appalling officiating of referee Giuseppe Quartarone, who refused to let either man – but particularly the shorter Parker – engage on the inside.

But Parker should be proud of the part he played in that fight, which was extremely close after six rounds before Joshua pulled away. The scrutiny on him was enormous in the days before and as he walked to the ring in front of a crowd of nearly 80,000 people in what was a truly intimidating cauldron.

The performance highlighted his movement and defence – his overall ring craft – and while Parker lost his WBO world heavyweight title to Joshua, he had plenty of reasons to be happy regardless (the multi-million dollar payday would have helped).

Although he didn't put Joshua in any serious trouble, he himself was never hurt. It proved Parker's qualities as an elite fighter on the world stage, a state of mind and body he must rediscover after his loss to Dillian Whyte in London in late July which has sent him back to a difficult re-building phase.

We saw once again Joshua's power and precision at Wembley Stadium this morning, but we saw again too that he can be vulnerable to pressure, that his defence isn't water-tight, and that he can be hurt – especially when struck on the nose.

Carlos Takam rattled Joshua when striking him on the nose during their fight in Cardiff in October last year and while it's not necessarily an area of weakness, it's an area of potential vulnerability.

Now it's up to Parker to ensure that his most notable performance didn't come in a defeat to Joshua, easily the biggest name in boxing in the world today. Starting with a fight in Auckland, Christchurch or the United Kingdom before Christmas, it's up to Parker to put himself in a position where he could be a champion again.


RE: Joseph Parker - bart - 09-24-2018

Browne
Ustinov (has he been active- atleast has height and durable)
Then winner of Whyte v Chisora

Miller won't take the fight he all talk
I would swap Browne as don't think he very viable opponent but may sell tickets in Oz?


RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 09-24-2018

Whyte and Chisora are re-matching???

Ustinov will come to NZ, but other than that, why fight him? Is he still in the top 10?
