True enough. BUT, he needs to know how to come forward, stalk his opponent, use footwork to corner him, and lay on some heavy shots. He just needs to watch what JJ did to HIM. He KNEW coming in that he needed a KO to up his rankings and status, and he KNEW Massey would run from him. Adapt my man, and that goes for that trainer of yours, Andy Lee. Sorry, but Lee has horrible fight plans for Parker, at least in his last two fights.
I know that Lee goes over his bad habits in training, but training is also for preparing for your opponent. Bart, it was a tick over fight. Didn't hurt or help his development and ranking. Maybe it got the bad taste in his mouth out of the way from how JJ beat him up.
Right now, I see Parker as a gatekeeper for the up and comers and the guys still trying to get a belt. Parker is NOT a heavyweight contender anymore. He STILL drops his left by his side, doesn't bring it back when he jabs.
