Circling then popping the 1-2-3. Then out.
Wear AJ down
JP by KO (hopefully)
Except that he was lunging against Hughie. AJ comes straight forward, with little body or head movement, so JP won't need much movement. Also, Ruiz and Takam give good movement, and Parker struggled. He won't need to fight a tricky fighter like them. Kiwi, Parker doesn't circle, he goes straight back, which is a problem. Unless KB corrects all his weaknesses...Parker also leaves himself open alot in the exchanges.
Which is why I'm suggesting that he does none of those things. Stay out of range, then pounce with those fast hands, and then get out. His only chance. If the fight goes into the middle rounds, AJ will catch up with him and bust him up. Best chance, Parker goes after him early like I suggested, keep him off balance, maybe retreating and uncertain, and then test that jaw they talk so much about.
