Like i agree with parker and he's saying the right things but heres the problem for me.
For the past 2 years+, despite all their talk about AJ being a big stiff lump tgey have been trying to pile the pounds on parker in an attempt to match AJ for size and strength.
Now taking that weight back off is the right move but I'd have like to seen it come off two fights ago so parker can get used to using his old style.
I dont like making major adjustments for a big fight without preperation.
We will see what happens but i think its too late to go back to the low 230's and start working on movement and angles now, he needed multiple training camps not one.
I also dont trust joe to keep his hands off the boxes of favorites over xmas period. Hes used to eating like a 115kg man now.
