Parker looked strong and put his combos together well. Very different fighter from before. Be interested to see if he can do it against better competition.
That said, Joe hit him low at least three times, and was warned by Rebel each time. The last low blows were two low blows followed by the knockout. So the low blows set up the KO. I'm sure Flores will protest, and it could be ruled a DQ and no contest, or a DQ against Joe and Flores wins. Boxing being boxing, I'm sure it'll be ruled a KO win by Parker.
Bad look for Joe. If it were reversed, and Flores did it to Parker, I'd be royalty pissed. Even KB still complains about Whyte's headbutt costing Joe the fight.
I think Parker set out to prove he's not Mr Nice Guy, and as he and KB said, they've been practicing it on sparring partners. And he took it into this fight. It's one thing to retaliate, another to just be a dirty figher. Tonight, Joe was a dirty fighter.
