Best of luck, Joe Parker, and as you've already made a good impression on Larry Holmes, I've got to believe in you.

I like Parker a lot and he's exciting to watch. Parker and Joshua - the two most interesting young HW fighters out there.

Should have him on the Wlad undercard, if he really is a decent talent. train with the champ then go fight on his card is finishing off a training camp the best way!
