Parker v ??

Was 90th anniversary of Tom Heeney's challenge against Gene Tunney last Thursday.
RNZ has some pieces from the Sound Archives. Commentary around NZ (3,000 outside the YA station in Heeney's native Gisborne) was a relayed morse code report!
Heeney retired to Miami where he bought a bar and used to go fishing with Hemingway

....and of course Tunney is famous for beating Jack Dempsey on two occasions! That's legendary.

Whoops, my bad, I just skim read and thought it was still Heeney being discussed.

We're both right.
I bet Tunney went his whole life without even seeing a Rugby ball.

Looks like Martin Snedden thinks JP should retire and enjoy his millions. -

That was very cool. Cheers.
Better footage than my internet feed last weekend.
The change in size of the heavyweight fighters has been extraordinary.
Now if only Heeney had opened a Cafe not a bar

I don't think the change has been as noticable as other sports. The heavyweight division has always thrown up a few freaks. I reckon Jim Jeffries (fighter, not comedian) would do ok nowadays. He fought at 6 2 and about 100kg over a hundred years ago although obviously today he'd be considered merely big as opposed to gigantic.

Higgins is considering appealing the result. If Joe is serious about continuing his career this is not the way to go.
The headbutt should not have been scored as a knock down and Joe should have won that round 10-9. Allegedly...They are claiming it should have been a draw.
Meanwhile Whyte is pouring salt on the wound, that big Himalayan shit with the bit of pepper in it too, by saying his ribs were broken and his hand was fucked a few weeks out from the fight. He claims to have beaten Parker while broken.

Parker is fighting Alexander Flores in December. If you are having trouble working out who that is so is Google....
I can not even find a fight video of his.

This guy?
Not really a fair fight is it

Here you go
v Charles Martin
JP may not be a champ at the moment but he's a damn sight better than either of those two.
I guess he has to keep on plugging away until another chance comes his way.
Someone new will eventually come on the scene at he will be on their radar as they try to prove their worth. -
Wilder fights Fury on December the 1st ,
That will be a bit more interesting

@kiwiinmelb hell yeah. Have been hearing Wilder talking for so long I want to see what he can deliver against Fury. Is Fur the ultimate wildcard? If he's fit and genuinely focused he's gonna be tough for Wilder. But Wilder has real stopping power. Just hoping it'll be an active and aggressive fight, rather than them dancing around trying to land a single punch to finish it. Def want to see a KO though!!
