Joseph Parker talks preparation for major fight against Deontay Wilder | It's Only Sport

[@JeaneGenie]

Joseph is coming across super confident for this fight. With this confidence and the way he's been fighting lately I think he's got a good chance of taking Wilder out. My money is on JP for the win.

[@EliE-100]

He ain't fought nobody, I can see if he knocked out high level competition but that's not the case Wilder about to put him to sleep 😴

[@Thanosdidtherighthing]

@@EliE-100 Agreed.He’s getting put to sleep in 4.

Christmas Eve is sorted this year. Stacked Fight Card & Liverpool vs Arsenal. 👍🏽

[@tobysmusings]

Full respect to Joe Parker- living his dream, mixing it up with the big boys on the world stage. Wilder’s height and reach advantage and dynamite power is going to make for a tough night at the office. Go JP - bring the noise!

[@bennichols1113]

Go for it Jo. Hes not all that.

[@nandhitarosieur4552]

Have to be proud of his achievements, however he isn’t an elite fighter, but he’s facing one in Wilder. It’s only going to end in J P being knocked out, but again full credit to him for taking the toughest of challenges

[@ritzkola2302]

It’ll be a great night of Boxing!

[@nandhitarosieur4552]

@brianfamilar9800 If it goes 12 rounds, Parker will win on points, he will outclass Wilder & make him look second rate. Can Parker knock out Wilder? I personally don’t think so as we haven’t seen this power from Parker at elite level, can Wilder knock out Parker? Yip, anyways hope JP wins & gets more massive pay days in the years to come

[@ritzkola2302]

@brianfamilar9800 you’re smiling crack 😂 apart from NOBODY AT ALL BECAUSE PARKER DOESN’T HAVE ANY IMPRESSIVE WINS. He gets put to sleep by a guy that hasn’t fought in 2yrs.

[@ZaydDepaor]

Wilder has an elite right straight... but he is NOT an elite boxer... Parker is better. Wilder has not beat anybody as good as Parker. Parker is in fact an underachiever, Parker struggled to dominate a few fights he should have easily won and he should have been the first to stop Joshua.

[@ritzkola2302]

@@ZaydDepaor Wilder has beaten BETTER opposition than Parker. Parker has beaten nobody anywhere near as great as Wilder. If boxing was purely about skill than nobody would’ve ever bet against Floyd. Nor would anybody had negative remarks about Floyd. Most skilled in the history of the sport. Other factors come into play. Wilder has never lost a fight that’s gone 12 rounds and he’s had a few. Parker isn’t some tremendously skilled boxer. He’s average. Nothing special, nothing unique, nothing out of the ordinary. Just average. Wilder is just under average but the difference is it’s by choice. He’s made it clear he’s in there to knock people out. Manny Pacquiao was another dude with terrible fundamentals but he got knockouts. Parker couldn’t beat. His only hope at beating Wilder is ring rust.

[@leonnott9816]

JP sounds like he’s in the zone! Should be a great fight, can’t wait!

[@haatjo]

Usually boxers fight like they always fight. If Parker keep his left hand low like he allways does, Wilder will knock him out. I think that Parker needs miracle to win. Sometimes unexpected things happens, Parker will need it.

[@ZaydDepaor]

don't be silly, it wont be a miracle, Parker is better than Wilder.

[@haatjo]

@@ZaydDepaor Parker have lot of bad habits. And Wilder need just one chance.

[@chernoalpha107]

Can’t wait for this card

[@Nephalym_]

Parker will outbox him and KO him in the 6th round

[@NicoAmosa]

Parker pitches the same thing. Training is perfect etc etc but the same thing. I’m glad he says he’s working on “movement” because he has no head movement and very poor defence. He struggles with taller fighters and starts slow. Collect that Saudi money while you can and try stay safe.

[@EliE-100]

Lmao😂 you ain't lieing about that

[@EliE-100]

@@brianfamilar9800 maybe in the next two years but not this year it's going to be a devastating knock out and btw it's not 50/50 it's more like 90/10 Wilder believe it or not 💯

[@muddhutter]

If Joseph keeps moving and jabbing he can beat Wilder. Actually boxing instead of trying to knock his opponent out.

[@JaqIronside7]

Big Joe Parker🙌💯🤙

[@ReginaldHarris-gm8fi]

Kia kaha my uso Lets go

[@MrTumblingmoth]

think he has a great chance to knock this bloke over. He can cop this so long as he evades a direct hit by movement and his own punch inside can be a counter and so take away the other guys leverage - long arms. One punch either way can make the other fall over so all tributes to JP. He is a great Kiwi and hats off to him.

[@madaickiwon292]

Parker FTW

[@vesitagoiaega3891]

JP will knock out all of you that comment he will be knocked out by Wilder.😅😅😅😅 Let’s go JP prove them wrong.❤❤

[@bestsleepsounds7370]

Hope Parker is getting a big payday, he deserves it.

[@DarkStar-wu9nq]

I have Parker to KO Wilder in round 8 I have great odds and have put 130 on Parker

[@marnzwilliams2146]

lesshgoo parker

[@ZaydDepaor]

70/30 fight in Parker's favour, he is better boxer, better chin, better movement, better punch variety and he has the power to stop Wilder and he might well stop Wilder early... Wilder has not beaten someone on the level of Parker.

[@mrpk646]

Considering what joyce did, I dont have much confidence in oarker goong the distance. However wilder is NOT joyce, and IMO has shown mutiple times that he dies not have a great chin. If parker is able to land like he was doing vs jouce, he might be able to stop wilder. I'm picking wilder by KO. But especially after the trilogy with fury, I am sure wilder us not the same physically or mentally. He can be taken out

[@ZaydDepaor]

Parker lost that fight due to wrong prep and wrong tactics, he was gassed from the beginning...yet still took a lot of good shots and landed a lot of good shots, also it was a career best performance by Joyce and he landed a career best punch when parker was very gassed. Joyce will make everyone struggle and the Zhang loss was more about how skilled, durable and dangerous Zhang is, Zhang can beat everyone. Parker would probably win rematches with all people he lost to, he is one of the more skilled heavyweights. Parker can certainly stop Wilder, Wilder has struggled with boxers less than Parker. Parker hits harder than Fury, better chin than Fury...and Fury was close to stopping Wilder in 3 rnds in 2 fights.

[@RingWalkBoxingPodcast]

Wilder can knock anyone out with 1 punch right? Ok understood so to have a good chance of beating Wilder go for the kill, pressure him cautiously & set up traps & go in to knock him out, before it happens to you! Good luck JP 🥊

[@SmokingJoe62]

Can’t wait for Parker to beat up the most overrated hype job in heavyweight history

[@HerbalTee29]

Wilder picked Parker for a reason, he can be knocked out…he doesn’t move his head plus he loses focus a lot in fights… = knocked the f out…

[@ZaydDepaor]

He will be a lot more alert for this fight I expect, a lot more motivated and he has better skills and better chin than Wilder. Parker might stop Wilder early.

[@TravisTautari]

Parker for the win time for Deontay to retire

Haha......Joe has picked up the Furys' vernacular........."Listen........". It is not a natural Kiwi term.

[@ZaydDepaor]

seriously? He sounds focussed, confident and fine to me...and he should be, he is the better boxer and has had better fight experience.

[@jacklee8703]

Joe parker lost to the Slowest man in boxing named Joyce who got KOd by the chinese Big Bang Zhang.

[@ZaydDepaor]

Joyce was not slow against Parker, it is an illusion of Joyce's size, stance, guard and short steps...he was quite fast and Parker is one of the fastest heavyweights. Parker's prep and tactics were wrong, so he was blowing in the 2nd round. And Joyce would make all heavyweights struggle, only Zhang has beat him and that is because Zhang is big, strong, durable, skilled, economical, and powerful with good timing and distance control...Zhang might KO everyone. Parker has better movement, chin, punch variety and experience than Wilder...Parker is more likely to stop Wilder unless he gets careless. Wilder would not be able to take the shots that Parker landed on Joyce and Wilder is not a pressure fighter with high output like Joyce. Fury almost stopped Wilder in 3 rounds in two fights...and Fury doesn't punch as hard as Parker, and Fury doesn't have the chin of Parker either.

[@justinlanger7109]

Parker lacks the heart or ability to smell blood like Wilder but he is the technicially better boxer. I just find it hard to believe that Wilder wont hit Parker flush and finish em inside 12 rounds but I'd love to be proven wrong! Go Parker

[@ritzkola2302]

You know who else was technically better? A dozen people. Some of em were significantly better than Parker.
