This is so much bigger than I thought it would be. The drama is slowly unfolding but Im not sure Parker is part of the main cast. Tyson is fully using Parker. I hope he knows that.
Do you think it's as covert as that? Fury could be doing this to get under Joshua's skin, and it appears to be working. Remember that Haye is also helping Parker so it seems to be Team Hearn vs the rest in the UK.
I don't think it's a simple case of setting up Parker but it's part of it. Could be 2 British boxers building up the Kiwi upstart so their Champion mate can take his belt after the young fullas false bravado has led him astray. Haye wants one last title run too.

@kiwiinmelb it's the complete lack of discipline that I see. letting himself go so badly and already lacking the athletic physique. His voice has gone and he looked like a 50yo man for about 2 years.

Yeah Ricky Hatton used to do the same , let himself go completely in between fights ,
seems so unprofessional , and just bloody hard work to shed the weight again , makes no sense ,
But he isnt looking too bad now , will be interesting to see how he goes .

Hatton looks like absolute hammered shit these days but again, was ripped as fuck for fights.
Fury must have a decent metabolism cos he was looking like Jabba the Hutt when he did a haka with JP not too long ago.

I ran into Ricky Hatton in a bar in thailand a few months back , he was sitting there getting shit faced by himself , totally out of shape and looking nothing like an ex world champ ,
Pandoras Bar , Soi 7 Pattaya to be exact ,
Had a couple of beers with him , he had no idea who I was , but seemed to enjoy having a chat , talking absolute shit, funny bastard he was

I'm a 52 year old man and he looks years older than me thank you very much 😁

Solely going by that weigh in picture, which one of those two would you pick as a boxer?
AJ surely has some athletic skills to get where he has, and maybe he just breaks the mould, but look at JP in comparison. Thicker core, more 'padding' to take shots, a thick neck.
-
If Joe got his tan on you'd see far less difference imo. Joe doesn't have quite the bulk but he's pretty close in terms of body fat I reckon. Joshua looks far more like a gym rat, especially with his headphone and visible undies.
-
cant remember who i was listening to, but was some boxing pundit and he was saying up close JP has a much bigger head than AJ as well...
-
The most significant difference for me is AJs 6 inch reach advantage , particularly how he likes to throw that right from full extension

Parker looks quite a bit more underdone in the chest area Paeks. Is the the only bloke on earth who doesn't work chest?
