Thanks Bopman.  Really good analysis.  Confirmed for me that Parker is easy to hit and keeps his hands too low.

Thanks bopman - good to see some pre-fight style analysis of this epic event.

Agree die.  JP is too easily hit.  Against a powerhouse like AJ who has a height and significant reach advantage - Joe's high headed, low handed immobile style could prove disastrous.  

I've said it before.. Joe needs to slip AJ's long jab and boom home straight rights hands into the heart and solar plexus region.  For the first 5-6 rounds - at least.  To do this successfully he needs to be on his toes to ensure he gets close enough to his target, he needs to hold his head low chin protected by the right arm shoulder.  Like a matador, Joe needs to move left and right, always changing direction - laterally..  Every jab AJ throws needs to be met by a single power punch.  Straight right when slipping to the left - left hook to the right.  Don't hang around bang, then outathere, move.. for 6 rounds.  AJ will slow as his battered diaphragm struggles to inhale deeply.

Round 7 onwards, always moving, now those rapier right hands are easier to land, add to them 3 or 4 punch combos, then away again and moving, assessing, boxing.  After 2 or 3 rounds of heat from a smart boxing Parker, the combo's start to take effect.  Round 10 onwards - built on a platform of patience and precision - JP should be in a position to overwhelm the champ and take him out.

A fairy tale?  Maybe maybe not but, a possibility for sure.  It all depends on who is the better boxer.  

If Joe comes out and starts a jabbing duel with AJ - if he remains immobile and too heavy on his left foot - if he takes every opportunity to engage in a scrap - if he hasn't learnt to cover, protect his chin and move his head - he loses.

Go Joe!
