Major respect to Team Parker for the Bakole agreement, he coulda had a much easier mix with any of the others being considered 🥊🥊🥊

This card has been insane all week. This is some cartoon "Superfriends, assemble" level shit. Can not wait.

Bakole is actually a great fight for Parker because i think he can handily win and assuming you meant by "sanction" that he would suffer some penalty other than losing his title, then great. To be honest, i think there are issues with Dubois' maturity as a fighter and person. He doesnt seem that comfortable in his skin, lacks confidence and im not all hyped up on him as some devastating puncher. Joshua cant handle equilibrium shots and to me dubois pedestrian 1-2-3 combination style was made to order for parker. Dubois pulled out for some reason other than illness. He might be a bit of a head case and cycling off steroids is a terrible trigger. Now as to Parker... Hes a throwback to the days when fighters got better through experience and a loss was something you learned from. People dont realize how strong he is.. Naturally strong. And he has now come into his own as a well conditioned, relaxed, boxer-puncher with great ring discipline and focus. Thats why he can avoid big shots from a zhang or wilder and keep doing it for twelve rounds. I think hes the number two heavy in the world right now behind only usyk and has the best chance of beating a guy like usyk. If i were him i would bypass dubois after this fight for a bigger money fight if possible with Usyk. Then let Dubois come crawling to him.
