We didn't want the clinching as we wanted to fight on the out side with reach and speed (we were confident junior would be faster as we trained a different way for this. I believe he was). the clinching was heaps as Joe wanted to Coe in and we wanted to reset to the outside. it was a game of chess in that regards. if we had dominated the centre a couple of times and come forward I feel we would have go the win. we believe junior rocked Joe with a very clean shot in 1st round at the end. we saw his legs buckle a bit. KB was very complimentary in press conference to junior which is new and we appreciated. we look forward to being even healthier and going again in 5 month. we would like to fight Joe again as I think we saw the potential in him on Saturday we always knew was there. uppercuts are risk reward shots and we could have always thrown some and done more. I think junior surprised him self with what was left in the tank at end which was a real concern for us only getting right 2 weeks out from fight. so training was minimal for 10 of jan through to 10th of feb.(03-01-2021, 07:39 PM)markk Wrote:(02-28-2021, 12:15 PM)diehard Wrote: You're right kiwi. Not a good look. Both guys did it, but mainly Fa. I guess that was his strategy, to frustrate and tie up Parker. Yes, the Chisora fight should be different. I thought Rebel did a good job of stopping each one, but there needed to be a warning for it continuing at some point.
it was a strategy. as we didn't have the fuel in the tank for everything to be perfect. . that's just a reality we had in our camp due to oxygen levels
Hey markk, while I gotcha on here, did Parker hurt or buzz Jr at any phase of the fight? Did Jr believe he hurt Fa at all?
On another note, Parker has a way of ducking his head when he comes forward throwing his one, two. I felt that could have been countered with an uppercut or coming over the top with a right. Jr did catch him with some rights, but not coming in. Your thoughts, please? And thanks for coming on here!
