I rewatched the fight and tbh Parker was making a lot of errors and not fighting well.
His movement which can be very good at times, wasn't in this fight. He was as defensivley lapse as ever.
Now that he's been GENUINLEY knocked down he might realise that ypu can't just rely on your chin.
Honestly I think Joe needs a rest for a bit, go home to Samoa and just lay on the beach and read books for a few weeks, he needs to recharge.
Following that it's time for the rebuild and that should be looked at as FUN, not "ugh rebuilding"
He's 26, he's still a kid really, take the bloody pressure off him and get back to enjoying boxing. Forget about world titles for 18 months, just have a break then get out, be active.
