Joseph Parker - Young man going places.
-
Parker has to replicate the tactics Lewis used against Tua - use his jab as a weapon to keep the distance. JP won't want to allow Ruiz inside and make this fight into a brawl.
@Bovidae Ruiz has very good head movement and trains specifically to avoid the jab being a shorter guy in this division. Still the way to go for Parker no doubt about that but it'll be interesting to see how effective it is. Tua is on another level compared to Ruiz as a puncher but the boxing ability favours the Mexi-merican. Lewis could have had it a bit harder against someone that could actually box.

Who caught that shit from Weirdo Barry earlier in the week about the "Animal will be released" ?
Fuck he weirds me out man. He's so serious and thinks people still buy that machismo type shit from the rocky films. Although he looks more like the bad guy in Cobra.
-
Looking good so far - both throwing some good combos
-
then it all gets wild!
-
yeah, sounds like he can take fights deep too. So he'll be dangerous throughout
-
bit of a concern , joe looks a bit lost here
-
More action in those last two rounds - Parker needs to get a few more runs on the board.

Keep the comments coming pal.

Ruiz is getting in fast flurries when they close - and he's chasing Parker a bit
-
Parker it throwing combos but really spaced out and he isn't jabbing enough in between
-
Yeah definitely!
Parker is wearing the shots well but it only takes one...
