I just read Parker was going to be fighting Daniel Martz tonight on Boxing News and it blew my mind. I just moved to West Virginia in May and watched Martz (who is a local here in WV US) stop a journeyman from Detroit on body shots a few months ago at the local casino (in Wheeling WV). I met the fella at the bar that night at the casino and he was a nice guy. He was seriously tall. I walk around at 5'11-6'0 and weigh around 220 lbs. This guy towered over me and is definitely a big ass dude.
He looked good in the fight I saw and he was probably the only fighter that night that made an impression on me. I could almost feel the concussion from some of those body shots he landed. He certainly isn't close to JPs level but I wouldn't write him off as a complete bum. He's a big guy, he can punch , and he's not a terrible fighter. I'm actually really excited to see this.
