Comments Thread For: Parker Stops Dimitrenko In Three, Retains Mandatory Slot

[KillaCamNZ]

Had to laugh at that bollocks.

Where's the funny part bud?

AJ has not stepped in the ring with anyone who is good. His toughest opponent was an overweight Whyte who rocked him.

Parker's learning curve has been smooth, and accelerated. He's already beaten someone well above anyone AJ has touched.

I'm a boxing fan first, and I don't want to see AJ left behind or be allowed to stay as potential rather than proof. This AJ kid can be so good, so damn good - **** pleasing the casuals, and give this guy a real fight.

No more B grade British and American club fighters.

Don't wanna rush him? Fine. Just shut the **** up and don't claim he's something he's not yet.

[Larry the boss]

well done mate, you beat an old man ranked outside the top 40 who couldnt fight back, let me be the first to congratulate you, really impressive

he just turned 34

[Tatabanya]

Not quite sure why you mentioned botha...are you trying to say that's his best win?

No, of course. It was meant to emphasize that all prospects feast on fat old has-beens or rejects from other sports, not only AJ.

For the rest, I can live with all of your opinions. As always, time will tell and I've never refused to admit a misjudgement when the moment came. The first time I saw Daniel Santos fight, I thought he would become an all time great... He did achieve good things ultimately but, boy, was I wrong in terms of class...

w t f do you think Joshua , wilder , have done they only fight in there country for ****s sake , so you hold it against a new Zealand fighter for starting his career in his own country ??? if parker was an American fighter he would get way more credit , and as for the dq against him don't be taken in the guy was getting pummeled and looked for a way out anyone believing he was that hurts an asshat.

You mean the two guys that due to luck of birth get to fight from the two biggest boxing markets there is...

how about you read #43 where i clearly said Dimitrenko wanted out the fight from the beginning before sounding off you ****ing gimp.

If Joshua or Hearn doesn't want to face Parker and keep making demands of him to keep delaying the fight they should relinquish the belt. Parker is not a manufactured star he has had to work his way up the rankings unlike Joshua who had a title shot bought for him to appease ppv hungry Brit casuals.

its the IBF belt.. parker is mandatory, and they enforce them heavily. If he doesnt face parker he'll be stripped. Parkers camp stated they wanted the dimi fight before AJ and a possible Undercard bout on a matchroom card beforehand too...No-ones making demands of parker at all its just good business from both ends.

also... pretty sure Martins camp called out AJ because it was the money fight and AJ was ranked so he got a voluntary shot. if some bum called you out for a world championship, paper champ or not...and you knew you could floor him you wouldnt take the fight?

suuuuuuuuuuure......

Parker looked really fast and strong.

Dimitrenko was hurt from the very last body shot when he was on his knee. He was in a particularly vulnerable position when he got hit by that shot...His left arm was raised, leaving his body completely open and unprepared for the impact of the punch.

The ref couldn't see that Parker threw the punch when Dimitrenko was on his knee.

[soul_survivor]

Should have been disqualified if the ref knew the rules of the sport he was officiating. Clown.

Exactly what I said, he should be stripped if he isn't prepared to face his mandatory. Right now it looks like Hearn is desperate to delay the mandatory throwing guys like Price in front of Parker to curb his natural thirst for blood. The scenario about to unfold is no different from Brook avoiding Spence by moving up a weight and relinquishing his IBF title. Joshua will face Klitschko lose his belt and avoid Parker yet the British casuals will believe Joshua has come out with a raised profile like they believe Brook was competitive against GGG.

Hearn will they buy his cash cow another title and subsequently line up a whole host of trash for him to face, again.

No it isnt exactly what you said.. you're saying AJ is ducking parker ... he isnt.

Parkers camp stated THEY wanted to have more fights before they used their mandatory shot so Parker could tune up. Parkers management and trainer have been quoted as saying they'd be happy to be on an AJ undercard prior to their mandatory bout so they can raise profile.

The Parker fight is always going to happen, it's simply a question of revenue. Hearn was looking at stiverne and Pulev with parker on the undercard against Price or whomever else so they can build revenue and hype for the fight.


The klitschko development is only due to one person - Tyson Fury

It's also a huge money spinner for very little work for Hearn if the sanctioning bodies give Wlad a belt back and he has stated it will ONLY happen if klitschko is given a belt back. They wont be fightintg klitschko with just the IBF on the line....


As far as your analogy of Brook/Spence, we sit on opposite sides of the fence on that..i think Brook is #2 welterweight behind Thurman and beats Spence for another 18 months to 2 years
