RE: Joseph Parker - tm7 - 11-09-2015 (11-09-2015, 11:44 PM)NakiFan Wrote: They will be especially if these two fights last a total of 5 rounds. The USA plans after Samoa will really be interesting...at least then they can tempt boxers that don't travel or can't (AKA Mansour) Apparently they'll have at least one, maybe two more fights in NZ after Samoa first. Just get him over there already. RE: Joseph Parker - cranky - 11-10-2015 oh dear.. these opponents are just as popularly received as I feared: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=693467 RE: Joseph Parker - tm7 - 11-10-2015 Neither Matrz or Bergman would make the Top 5 of JP's opponents, although that in itself is scraping the barrel a bit.. 1 - Kali Meehan 2 - Sherman Williams 3 - Frans Botha 4 - Bowie Tupou 5 - Brian Minto RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 11-10-2015 New Zealand boxer Joseph Parker being asked to climb 'The Mountain' in his next fight Trainer Kevin Barry wants Joseph Parker challenged by size and styles as he looks to advance his heavyweight boxing career. A contrast in size and styles awaits New Zealand heavyweight boxer Joseph Parker with opponents confirmed for his next two fights. Parker faces his tallest opponent, 2.02m American journeyman Daniel Martz in the feature bout of the Fight For Life promotion in Hamilton on December 5. And, as promised, he will then take on a southpaw for the first time when he fights another American, experienced Jason Bergman, in Samoa on January 23. They are both seen as further steps in advancing the unbeaten Parker who is rising rapidly through the ranks. With the top tier of the division characterised by big men, Parker's handlers are eager to keep challenging him in that department. "Even though Joseph is 6'4" he is shorter than the biggest names in the heavyweight division like Wladimir Klitschko (6'6"), Deontay Wilder (6'7") and Tyson Fury (6'9"). We want Joseph to capture the world title and that means we must get him accustomed to fighting opponents much bigger than himself," Duco Events promoter David Higgins said. Dubbed "The Mountain", the 24-year-old Martz has been a professional since 2012 and has 14 wins, a draw and two losses with 11 wins by knockout though he has not fought anyone of note. He is ranked No 123 in the independent listings produced by BoxRec which have Parker at No 9. Martz has fought twice this year and is coming off two wins. Bergman looks a tougher proposition. The 31-year-old is ranked No 75 by BoxRec and is No 11 on their heavyweight southpaw rankings. Bergman has been active since 2006 and has 25 wins, two draws and 11 losses. But 16 of those wins have come in his 18 fights over the last five years. Parker and Bergman share one common opponent – Australian Bowie Tupou. Bergman suffered a second round knockout loss to Tupou in 2007 while Parker KO's Tupou in the first round of their Invercargill fight earlier this year. It's Bergman's left-handed approach that Parker's trainer Kevin Barry is interested in. "There are a number of quality southpaws in the heavyweight division, the most obvious being 6'1" WBA champion, Rusian Chagaev," Barry said. "Joe is currently ranked 13th by the WBA and rising fast so Chagaev is most definitely in our sights. When that opportunity presents itself we must be ready." - Stuff RE: Joseph Parker - diehard - 11-10-2015 Martz: http://boxrec.com/boxer/601643 Bergman: http://boxrec.com/boxer/378520 RE: Joseph Parker - NakiFan - 11-10-2015 Martz... JP wins by KO in Round 2 Bergman...a cautious JP wins by KO in Round 4 RE: Joseph Parker - shamrock - 11-10-2015 And I still wouldn't pay to see Parker fight. Doesn't KBs and ducos tripe get up ya craw.. RE: Joseph Parker - Nigs - 11-10-2015 laughable.
