Damn, Sham. I had to hear that exact same phrase from Mrs D all morning. She said my muscles were better than Parker's. Well, I guess that's good, a back-handed compliment, but damn, what does Parker do all day in the gym? He better bring speed, speed, and more speed. And a game plan would help too. Damn.
Die you know full well gameplans go walkabout when the 1st real punch connects.. Mrs D and I have great telepathy

I was expecting him to be leaner tbh. He will never be ripped shredded 6 pack but i wasnt expecting the lower belly paunch.
As a speedster extra bodyfat isnt going to be an advantage

Muscle mean little in tussles (I made that up right now ..must copyright)
Seriously if he has been working on speed than muscle bulk not needed/wanted?

Yeah Sham. It's not a body building contest. Boxing aside, I just don't know how Joe looks so, er, ordinary for an athlete who trains hard for 9 weeks. And Sham, Joe will remember that game plan until the end of the fight. And hopefully in their rematch. Here's hoping.

When asked, Jo said he could see cinfidence in Anthony's eyes, when Anthony was asked what he saw in Jo Parkers eyes he said 'only Jo Parker'...that says contempt

The stare downs and face off are all bollocks to me they are for the promoters and the sponsors they don't mean anything to the boxer.
My sister always beat me at the no blink game but in a fight she only beat me 95% of the time...meaningless
Hate it when the AB's do a fierce looking Haka and the commentators get excited ... we have done some great hakas and lost the test

Got it. The physique doesn't mean anything. The stare down means nothing. But Joe will carry the day. Got it. Perfect. Hear that, Sham?
