1) Couldn't close off the ring.
2) Lunging with his shots, especially his right to the body.
3) Inaccurate punching. Closes his eyes, and is usually too wide to hit Hughie.
4) Ducks his head down like a bull. AJ would uppercut him into next week.
5) Aggression too spotty.
6) Got hit by Hughie too often. Lucky Hughie has no power.
7) Never put two punches together.
8) Footwork? What footwork?
Parker was horrible. Did he not train to fight against Hughie? He needs a new trainer.
Positives:
1) He won.
Have to agree Die, i watched the fight after hearing the result and was expecting joe to look a bit sloppy but just be outlanding and landing the harder shots,
But that's not what I saw, he looked terrible. Hughies lack of power was joe's saving grace in there.
