I think that would make it a bit of a stylistically "boring" fight. Boring in terms of probably a number of rounds will be gauging distance with the jab. With neither ready to get in, maybe like Wlad v Fury where there were plenty of feints, pawing jabs and not many shots per round...
Parker on the other hand seems better at getting in and fighting taller opponents. Think back to all his fights, his best efforts are against the taller opposition.
Looking back on the above sentence, I'm probably way off the mark, but I suppose you get where I'm coming from...? ?
Izu has tremendous power, and great body shots with better defense than Parker. He IS a little like AJ but moves better. Izu is an unknown until he fights better opposition. Then we'll have a better chance to gauge where he is.
