    I certainly didn't. And SBW would be on the floor quicker than Cameron was. And I suspect he knows it. Parker has the fastest hands of any heavyweight boxer I've ever seen, and is now developing the power to go with it. Game over.
    Did you see last nights fight? Fuck me.

    I didnt pick Cameron/Tua because I think it could have gone either way. Cameron on his day is a real heavy hitter, but Tua can (and has) taken big hits. In the end it was very one sided though.

    I did pick Parker/Botha though.

    I saw Parker fight last year (and was introduced to him). Nice young lad and he knocked out some numpty thirty seconds in to the first round. I felt the thud through the ring and the floor. He's tall and quick and young. He could go far.

    SBW would be insane to take him on. Which of course is what Lonergan was banking on. Its a no-lose for Parker.

    Ya'll seem to think I am backing SBW in a fight with Parker .. let me make this very clear

    1 Until the fight none of us really know who will win.

    2 If Parker hits SBW just once it will be all over - he has quick hands and is a very big hitter ...

    3 SBW has amazing spatial awarensss and very quick reactions - fast dodges and quick hands ... if he does not get hit then he has a very good chance of winning on points

    When Ali fought Foreman the big hitter was going to take out Ali - never happened ...

    In a Parker/SBW fight I do not know who I would put money on for an outright win ... I'd probably put money on Parker to win by KO and SBW to win by points ...

    And yeah .. I do hope we get to see such a fight - I'd really like to see that one ...

    What he said.

    NZRU selectors and SBW should just have bumsex and get over it. All this courting is making me sick.

    If it happens we should totally get together and shout at the TV..... or buy tickets if in NZ.

    Has SBW ever faced anyone who could actually take it to him, i.e. have his defences ever been tested?

    Did you watch any of Klitchko (W)'s fight at the weekend? Not a shining hour for anyone really.

    1: Yes we do. It wouldn't even be a contest.

    2: Absolutely.

    3: Not even.

    Not even. I will chew my left testicle off and eat it with knitting needles as chopsticks if SBW beat Joseph Parker in a boxing match mate. One is a rugby/league player...the other a heavy weight boxer that is heading for greatness. SBW couldn't even put a fat washed up Yarpi out to pasture.

    So you're saying Lundy vs SBW has a fighting chance?

    SBW could be one of the only human beings to "clock" life. I know fuck all about boxing but I have held warriors seasons tickets for 8 years. I can already tell alot of piss we be consumed in my house this coming world cup.
    Never watched a full game of union in my life

    That's how they treat stars here.
    Jonah was one of the most disappointing rugby players I have ever had the misfortune of seeing...Wellington V North Harbour, he spent his time on the paddock doing fuck all, looked awesome during the pre match warm up though.

    Yes he was the best thing ever for 2 and a bit years, but is remember only, for one act alone these days.

    Yep because the nzrfu couldn't make any more money out of him when he got sick.
    If you think otherwise you're dreaming.

    TBTP are in it to make as much money as they can, why can't the players?

    He is earning more now than he ever was while playing rugby. I am just waiting for Williams to take up Basketball next...but probably wont because there is no world cup glory to had in that sport.
