Cableaddict Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Marcus Browne going back to Canada? Did he not learn the first time? Artur should take him out, of course, but if he doesn't, then they will once again find a way to rob Browne, as they did against Pascal. That's the safest bet in pro boxing today.

Bear Hugger Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Looking forward to the Parker vs Chisora rematch. I think Chisora will be up for the fight, but Parker will want to beat him convincingly this time around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Gotta be a Beterbiev Ko win. Browne's stock has gone down a lot, since the Pascal fight. Parker vs Chisora, I think Joe wins more convincingly this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cableaddict Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 One scorecard 114-112 with three knockdowns??? :noidea: That was absurd, for sure. At the same time, IMO most folks are giving Parker WAY too much credit for his performance, saying that he won every round and such. I didn't score it, but think Chisora probably won maybe 4-5 rounds. He definitely won the last round. which speaks to the incredible guts he's always shown. Parker's punch technique has definitely improved (Proving beyond a doubt that Kevin Barry is a charlatan) but his defense still has a loooong way to go. - Which is why Del Boy was able to land so much. He also still wastes too much energy trying to punch through his opponent's guard, instead of feinting and moving and creating true openings. (Again, Kevin Barry being clueless) - Which is why I think Del Boy won more rounds than most folks are saying. But at least Andy has gotten Parker's power up. His overall aggression and output have also improved. He looks more like when he first burst onto the scene years ago. So one step at a time. Andy even said post-fight that they still have a lot of work to do, obviously meaning (primarily) defense. Parker is (shockingly, to me) still only 29 y-o, so maybe he can still make an impact at the top-end of the division, with a LOT of work. ---------------------------- Final parting thought: I think I'm finally a Chisora fan! Beside his incredible balls, I was massively entertained by that stuff he was pulling in the corner. Kind of a brilliant strategy, when fighting a one-dimensional opponent and when you'r not a "back foot" counterpuncher: Go to the corner, so your opponent can't use angles, get low, and prepare to slip his attack then counter with an uppercut. Parker looked positively flummoxed every time Del Boy did this. It was really something to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRingRules Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 - - Truth is Dell looked like he was dying on his stool and in the ring most of the bout. Never seen a fighter look so gone as that. Fight a mop up gimmee for his fans and retire. He make some good purses and fights and has likely the stiffest competition of all heavies today, so no need for another cannon fodder sad story....

Never seen a fighter look so gone as that. .. Yeah, that must be why he threw so many punches, round after round after round..... And why he clearly won the LAST round.
