Heading down to the local (Kentish, Waiuku) tonight to watch this fight. A big step up for the young Explosive Joseph, but he should have the speed and the class. Should be a good fight.

It was a great fight but the after match was pretty cool too. Funny night as always where we ended up Big smile. Did Parker REALLY win though? He certainly proved he could take a punch but his defence was terrible, yet he still didn't go down. While i don't 100% agree with the result, Joseph Parker is destined to do well. Good on him.

Yep, enjoyable after match it was! 

I guess we know nothing about the fight game though, as nobody in our group had Parker getting the decision.

If you look in the press however, there was no controversy and all experts seem to think he was in control. Just didn't look that way to me.

Parker did enough to win the fight, He will need to improve his stamina and defence if he wants to go all the way. Pretty sure Tua would have KO'd him when he was in his prime.
He is still young for a heavyweight so hope he can develop

With that D Tua would've knocked him out in the first couple of rounds. Parker definately won. That undercard was terrible though.

Go the Warriors!
