Hes definitely prone to being timed for a cracking counter something Bergman couldnt utilise. I do believe cerebral boxers like Jennings, Ortiz, Fury, would capitalise on this. South paws like Tarver, Martin are all wrong for him. Ortiz is a nightmare. would like to see some more awkwardness in Parker's game. His movements are a bit trite and foreseeable. He should trust his power, mix it up and fight the fighter not just stick to the game plan hes been given. Need to see him in a crisis to see if he's got a plan b.
Robotic was the word, pre-programmed and sent out by barry. When bergman made things a bit awkward the 1-2's weren't getting the job done, parker was looking at his corner in confusion. Bergman was a bit of a spoiler that's granted but it took way too long to get rid of him. There are certain opponents where it pays to be cautious, against Bergman parker could afford to, and needed to, step over his front foot and fire off combinations.
