[Applause] [Music] hey gentlemen you're receiving instructions in a dressing room I expect a good clean fight protect yourselves at all times obey my commands at all times Parker's two losses to top-flight competition the former heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua and then Dillian white both last year and in those two he was able to go the distance with Joshua that was a competitive fight and he lost very close to white not white down in the 12th round so this man considered to be a big part of the heavyweight division big part of the future new deal with Mac's room three fight deal here on his own Chris yeah Joseph Parker has promised this would be at noon Joseph Parker the ring he feels like he has taken the safe way in a lot of fights not taking as many risks he's promised the beginning with this fight he's going to take more risks and starts off with the jab immediately he should be able to control the distance against Alex Lee up high much shorter much older it is interesting too if you look at the style of Mack shop parker was able to outbox andy ruiz but had difficulty with the length of Anthony Joshua but you got the sense good body shot immediately another but this one could be over fast can he finish this in one round uppercut all power shots by Parker [Applause] Liat Maya's been in there with the best he lost his title shot 2014 - Vladimir Klitschko was knocked out in the fifth round that though again five years ago and here this is a young hungry fighter in Joseph Parker and Leah pie is older he's been more in active and this fight was taking him short notice all three of those things are arrested before this fight distance Leah pine was retired for a year and a half with an eye injury came back in October of 2017 after he had eye surgery he is up against it here and Parker went to work immediately when vampires the most dangerous is when he gets on the inside he had a fight back in 2010 against Travis Walker where he looked like he was out on his feet Walker got too close and Leigh if I stopped it so the guy like Joseph Park should keep his distance him partners a big physical guy but he I think his identity in the ring Sergio is he likes to box that's how he was able to stay away from and guiit he would keep him at bay with the jab and be able to get out of the way those dangerous hooks you can't change who you are that is this technically he pops it on the back trip yes he does have power - final minute of this round Liam I just said all right let's fight you want to fight let's go but Parker has landed heavy thudding shots here in the first round I think Parker will be able to take out via pipeline it's not gonna be in these early rounds does the a fight does have enough torque and power on those heavy hands you gotta make those big shots miss get the big man tired remember somebody says let's go or maybe you're making your last gasp to get that feeling with Lea pine there's a hard right hand just before from Parker hook to the body as well uppercuts hooks Parker able to land at will we have highways in tries to get his body shot working that's a overhand right that is his money shot that's how the lionheart can make it happen to hard uppercuts [Applause] putting right hand near pie takes an uppercut as well along the back of the head the side of the head punishment coming from Parker in round one and Levi says a nice round it's going to be faster than speed if Joseph Parker can just stop it [Music] [Music] [Music] this is beautiful work here by Parker he's not really putting too much power in those shots he touched them upstairs just the land of body shots but here he goes off with a nice flurry make him leave I feel like he's getting jumped by like two or three different boxers but that's what you got to do a tough guys its speed and angles that do it and can I say four up you have a 39 year old man out there get him his stool get to wait 30 seconds for his stool hey George Foreman was almost 50 he didn't like to sit down no but no but Levi wanted to sit down it was saying get his stuff hey have a seat it's like I will hey Brian sometimes when you're that big sitting down and having to stand back up takes a lot from your legs okay let him stand you wanted to sit second round here Joseph Parker looking to make this a showcase fight and came out firing in the first round that was a good point to Sergio to in that a lot of times his punch is just touching him and then you saw right there like that that hook to the body then he will put some some velocity on it put some hurt on the airpipe says he got hit low right there kaijus Ricky Gonzalez acknowledging that and now we'll give Li upon some time we've just had this happen in our previous fight and he says are you good well no when you get you get a few minutes he says time in he didn't ask Li up I just said are you good ten seconds later I don't get it if you make the ruling that it was low you give the man time to recover get back up to fight me just miss the phosphorous right uppercut right Devin she's barely grace popular as well I mean the new ad that that much come up course it hasn't internet site to get them knocked out that multiple damage hard right hands and body shots I was a hard cutting body shot an uppercut by Parker some of you might turn a punch in between that side right that's really smart on his part so far commander be careful he eats a touch with those uppercuts a dip down think of defense not just often said marker is standing in close where it really doesn't have to he could stand back champ away and win this fight easily but he's leaning on Lea pine and trying to get in with an uppercut and trying to put this man away hard right hand by Parker and this is one of the adjustments that Joseph Parker promised to make for most of his career he spot a lot off his back foot must be a front foot fighter and be more the aggressor in future fights no listen that's exactly what he said he was gonna do though that he was going to be warm up front foot fighter but I think those solo well right here in these early rounds when you're dealing with a very powerful fighter likely upon to fight off that back foot at least in the art champ right away just a step straight out I agree with his surgeon he could stand back and just chat away do what he normally does but he is going into trying to make a statement and take this man out hard body shots his mention of miss me upon mr. overhand right Ted took a lot of also making a musil's 39 year old glasses way he's in the corner this a bad spot for Leia hi those are landing the hooks in the right hand lands Hartley applied I tell you he has heart right now definitely has a lot of courage because he wants the fight just as hard as partner but he doesn't have the legs at porterhouse Lionheart survives round two [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] normally you'll see heavyweights throw these kind of combinations with that type of speed but then we have Parker going downstairs upstairs and still being conscious of the left hook the big left hook that Lea PI tries to land right here Oh let us show it but definitely was conscious there through the combination by Parker key you got a love Kevin berry that's his trainer in there in the black shirt 84 silver medalist he was the guy that was hit low by or hit late by Evander Holyfield got Holyfield disqualified and then berry wasn't allowed to fight on because he had gotten knocked out so Lou only won the silver had no chance to win the gold but he's a colorful figure considered to be a top trainer and now he's got one of the top heavyweights in the world and Joseph Parker has just looked fantastic here tonight you can say he gets a 39 year old man was that another low blow being called again and now getting a warning from Ricky Gonzalez to get them up well this was another low blow by Parker nets - not this one wasn't as as clear and as hard as a first one when you're as tired as Lea pod you gotta take every shot now get me some rest Ricky Gonzalez saying don't retaliate it's gotta get back over to his neutral corner and again you could give him a few minutes and time is back in well he asked him there in Gonzalez's case there did ask Lea pie are you ready now and that seemed to be more of a question instead of hey let's go Marco gets back to work and he does have quite the repertoire now Sergio Abel of mix and winged uppercuts and hooks with his straight shots I would I would start boxing behind the jab I hear there's a lot of fighting leopar left or left to see that digging stabbing jab to the gun this is the body shots that are gonna stroll down Lee if I will Parker's stay to this new game plan and stay close because he has had success here so far he's just pummeling Lee up by looking round two out landing Leah pi32 five and yet you're right he puts himself in a bit of danger Leah pie occasionally with an overhand right or a weenie hook turns into a dangerous guy and Joseph Parker has more the best jabs and the heavyweight division flattery Klitschko the if I out several years ago was fighting off that jab and putting it down with straight right hands Holly I can see Parker potshot in via phone he doesn't need the combinations anymore Elia PI slowed down so much and he can catch him with pop shots on from either uppercuts are around the glove or straight right hands but he popped out to hurt Lea pi Liat might calls himself the Samoan Andy Ruiz Ruiz was the Mexican rocky how many guys how many guys are getting mileage out of a new movies underdogs all the opponents you come in as the opponent you like yeah well you felt that about anything Ruiz Lea pies chance of course his power is making that possible by staying close he's also winning he's wrapped by egg why once again it's up up up lots of terrific accomodation Joseph Parker [Applause] Fars right body shop good right uppercut he can weigh it in uppercuts and hooks those are landing it's gonna have to move he's gonna have to do something this is Porter's chance that he could deal with you maybe give Rita Gonzales an opportunity to stop this moment because it I keep my distance because that's what you don't want to give that slower Leah final you want to give up my chest I mean on your [ __ ] be discouraging which a foot movement in your speaking out hard body shot there by Parker in the final ten seconds Nietzsche is and Ray definitely feeling it the shoulder shake dancing it's important to keep the shoulders loose Sergio we know that you know both of them dancing definitely ass rhythm here love it I'll have what he's having by the way Maurice hooker Jose Ramirez is going to be tremendous unification fight at 140 pounds July 27 right here on to zone fourth round here heavyweights head-to-head two Samoans Joseph Parker now of New Zealand Alex Lea PI now of Australia making his best effort at the age of 39 but up against a a motivated 27 year old tops heavyweight Parker has looked terrific Chris Mannix giving him fall three rounds and easily very easy again power shots in combination whoops offer cuffs happening again and again the Empire wants Barker to keep munching because he knows he can't keep up with that speed wants to just try to catch on them between but possibly doing the right thing the smart thing potshots but not too much power into two ninjas working off speed keeping that distance you're wonderfully up I would have the energy to even try a time Parker or TM up for one shot he asked the 12 on energy as well now maybe this is part of the part the game plan here hope is dangerous like he told us we fight Amina soapbox get out of these early rounds thanks 4 min around whoo you got a tired big man in front of you and then well away just like that hook Leah pie hasn't gone past round 3 since 2015 so not totally uncharted territory but spin a walk right hand by Parker partially blocked but it still looked like it hurt that stays on balance and alterique that's deep really nicely is throwing the jab out as a feather duster and then a hard right hand comes thumping behind it always ready to drop the hammer I love that body shot right there was a sweeping right hook to the body right there you get down at Joseph's heart from love watching Roy Jones jr. live I see a lot of like moves everywhere Johnston jr. doesn't know not many big men throw a javelin stills and that sweeping right hook to the body and that was a nice combination to just he jab and then a hook immediately coming off the side an impressive arsenal so far by Joseph Parker again he's got a stationary target in front of them we're aware of that however you've got to go out and work you've got to take care of business and Parker is doing that [Applause] not every fight has to be a war and he has a win over Andy Ruiz and last year he fought Anthony Joshua and Dillian white so if this is a little easier for him you can understand just this with the right hand they trade hooks to complete by swinging a right hand [Applause] [Music] Joseph Parker in his corner let's go to LZ Granderson LZ effects became as you mentioned his trainers Kevin barium silver medalist Mehdi for Olympics but the real win for Kevin came when he met his wife Tonya Moss who also competed at Union gymnastics now when I asked is having a world-class athlete as a wife helping Kevin train box he said it sure does run into the fact that the flexibility helped inform them about creating higher performance she also helps him with nutrition after Parker he says that that Tonya actually acts as a second mother to him giving him someone to confide in lines away from his family so I guess the 84 Olympics was a winner for everyone involved back for you reach peak alz good to hear that I know he's a fun guy to talk to Kevin berry and again that became the claim to fame probably wasn't gonna win that fight against a vendor vendor uh that was a fan refereeing I watched that fight again Sergio it's a shame but you know what it was smart honor it was found by very far because he got a medal out of it silver medalist that's Joseph Parker and Parker winning every round here round 5 scheduled for 12 so a paella there's really good left hook to give some confidence at the end of that final round round 4 because bell rang [Applause] yep I'm now in the corner of the Ring and really the first time able to back Parker up into the corner you know it's got to change the equation somehow that there's only so much he could do but surgery I guess there are few things he can do well as he just did maybe to try to impose his will maybe if you get him stationary and get him pinned against a rope you can possibly do something possibly do something but you still have to watch out for their pies now power and he's just looking for one shot he can give up 2 minutes and 59 seconds but he wants out last second is to throw a left hook and speaking of time Chris Chris Lotus the Pope will go before I get to any kind of time here while I agree with you that theoretically Lia pie has the power to get himself back in this fight with one punch at 39 years old how much of a beating do you really want to take in there I mean he is getting outclassed and start to finish this round occasionally clean shot going in that was a hard body shudders but what but at what point if you're if you take the fight Chris and he's not bloody but he's not I don't know hurt badly yet the purest corner do you stop it because the referee wouldn't have the the wherewithal the impetus to stop it I don't think we're there yet but the next couple of rounds if he's still getting blown out you still take whoa the stick right there I don't think we're there either but first I know you brought it up and I think it's a good point at a certain point he doesn't need to be in there taking a beating you're right about that right now though he's supposed to give a professional effort and he's doing that were able to peppered with jabs just an observation client that last round the fourth round our account the belt will hang at about 2:45 of that round that's what I remember you notice him and yes and that actually helped Parker because the if I landed a good left hook that could have swayed the momentum there but yes a 239 the bell rang [Applause] see that tap tap just gonna have to heart shot left hook in the straight right hand and it's gonna discourage me from doubling up on the gem rounds now 2:45 was there supposed to be a stoppage in the middle interesting look at this work by beautifully done upon his toes and thrown out hard shots around with it so there well here we're going to see the slip but at the same time Lia pie landed a nice overhand right that probably would have done more damage if he wouldn't have slipped right on the chin right on the jaw right there of Parker I thought it was interesting what Kevin Barry had to say - there was that one moment early in the round we're leaving walked Parker down walked him up against the ropes and Kevin Berry's saying that is not what we're here to do do not let him walk you down I tell you Parker looked I thought fantastic in that final 10-second Sergio for what it's worth when he got gets up on his toes and he flashes out a jab and a little three-punch combination he's off it he'd be a tough guy to deal with for anybody obviously he's beaten and Ruiz was the champ it was a tough fight with Anthony Joshua it might be different next time around with chops what if he gets him in there for a big man like this to be swift on his toes bouncing going around the ring jabbing at the same time with with nice speed combinations upstairs and downstairs is really impressive hook off the jab to it's fast he throws on a jab left hook to the head very quickly you see an uppercut landing on Ali up high again again this meant six for 240 I mean he's not in the dread-nots class you know Tyson Fury is huge Chhota Anthony Joshua is huge to see the power punches it's not even close but he's 6 for 240 you cannot command out let's see if you can knock this ban out [Applause] I hear you Celia pie blocky hauling away every time Parker does that javi pump Paul's it away with the right hands they'll be smart on Park Road he can actually turn that jab into a hook and try to catch Leah pipe that's a price marker backing up now he is usually very good just backing up throwing a jab he is despite the size and again I'm saying he's not among that the top huge heavy weights that are out there with belts but he is a very big man and big strong athletic but he is very comfortable jabbing and backing up that's how he was able to stay out of harm's way against Andy Ruiz and outwork him and get away right hand just missing in a hook as well complete by dangerous shots Parker able of dodging dangerous sharks in the shot and I'm glad that Parker didn't try to catch him with those gloves because all those are big shots by Leah pie but he made him miss completely that takes the weight for the big man's legs firing off a hard right hands Parker again trying to tee off on that right hand set him up with the jab drop the hammer that is where li-fi has shown he's most vulnerable those straight shots down the middle his guard just isn't tight enough at the state of smile right hand comes flying off the jab is well Lea high taking these shots well but he is taking a lot of shots there's no question there's that jab turned into a hook that I just told told you about I love the fact that Parker did that I would love to see him stab the body downstairs to the bodies open now because via PI's blocked in with its gloves stab him down there to the torchon the midsection increasingly becoming target practice for Parker Lee applied really kind of a stationary target moving forward but not a lot coming back just becoming slower and slower [Music] Parker stays away from that it's easy work my Chuck so let's keep getting ready for the main event he gets his shot at the middleweight belt a win for son let's key would put him in position to start talking triple G and Canelo to Beatrice and red smooth as always his first fight here in his hometown crowd sees him on the big screen and hear the roar chance for a showcase chance for a homecoming and a chance to again create the demand and put pressure on the middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez or the former champion Gennady golovkin and make a big fight Andrade wants it he'll take it Chris he wants either guy either top guy he does and I think an impressive performance to go a long way towards securing one of those fights before the end of the year so you see a good crowd here in properties there was a decent crowd here at 6:50 p.m. so this is a good fight time people come out for all of the fights and not just reason in late to see Andrade round seven here this is to co-feature Joseph Parker in the white trunks Alex Lea PI 39 years old in the red trunks taking a beating Parker winning every round according to Chris Mannix and likely according to every judge scoring this fight right hand off the jab by Parker and cost as well heavy-handed shots from Parker maybe looking to close the show hold on he's looking to 12 the soil point shots with the nice leverage he's throwing the jab straight right hand coming around the glove I look to see some body shot forward it was a body shot hook leaning on Lea pine now staying close uppercut from way up high able to touch him but hard hooks coming back the other way one thing I haven't seen with Parker's double up a shot and that when you're dealing with a fighter like me if I block final shots against gloves doubling up on one side can throw off the momentum with you if you're rolling with the shots and blocking with the punches double up with the left hook double up with the right hand don't look somehow I think the question Sergio right is is that how much does Parker want to work like a how often do you stay in fifth gear where you just you know you straight the guy but you are outputting a lot you're using a lot of energy to energy to do it where you could just cruise to an easy win but he told us and the fighter needs he's been taking a lot of criticism because he was too cautious he needs to take more risk put more pressures try to take the man out and this version of Joseph a lot more exciting no question I was snapping the hook hard right hand so Parker is ready to rumble here hard body shot as well just went with that champ to the body getting leverage on that uppercut as well so Parker doing his part trying to get a stoppage on Leah pot and that's what I wanted from him earlier it's a stabbing jabs I'm downstairs you can even double up on that body shot so jack downstairs and make sure you bend your your knees because then you leave yourself all vulnerable for overhand sleeping right hand right there just even something that could just go unnoticed not be mentioned by us I call in the fight we don't call every single punch that was like what four or five champs and he just blessed perfect body head one after another this is smooth work by Parker and they're snapping out a jab at the right hand free punch combination all looking smooth all looking good Leah pie remains in front of him for now [Music] love that jab by Parker anytime via PI that thinks of punching a straight jab flicks them in the face beautiful job by Parker Parker doing the work not to be a player amid the Champions Ruiz wilder and fury headphone Bertrille Ortiz returns to Texas taking on Antonio Orozco that's in Grand Prairie Texas you can see it live on the zone August 10th Virgil Ortiz plays the piano as well Sergio remember that I'm sorry Virgil Ortiz also plays the piano like Joseph Parker I'm sorry son I'm sorry we have another conversation they were in my ear talking about the replay but no rift Ortiz is very talented Brian absolutely I just I saw Parker playing the piano it's obvious he has musical talent and he says it is he's ambidextrous and help some with the controls both hands Bert Ortiz playing the piano myself I think Virgil Ortiz right now best prospect the Box the best one best prospect in Boston [Music] he looks horrendous in Las Vegas last time we saw August 10th right here on the zone here round 8 in Providence Rhode Island Joseph Parker in the white trunks Alex Lee up high in the red it has been all Joseph Parker just a matter of to what extent does he want to dominate and how hard does he want to work to put himself at risk not because he doesn't want to work hard but you gonna put yourself at risk if you stay in the pocket on this strong stump of a man Leah Pike and punch now I think he's gonna go for the knockout he told us he's gonna be looking for the knockout now this is sucking chapter in Joseph Parker's career he's looking for these stoppages he wants to turn eyes he wants that rematch with Joshua and reason there in order to do that you get stoppages over big men like this oh my Connor are gonna be like you think he's not looking to knock I mean he's been standing in the pocket for most of this fight trying to knock this guy out but Leah pies shown a great chin and taking some of his best shots I think in that last round he was Chris I think in that last round he did put it down put the accelerator down through all his shots way you know I usually hate you say hey took that round off but you do have to discretion is the better part of valor sometimes he's like you don't want to put yourself at risk to that Brian I think Joseph Parker's taking this right now I agree I think so because he thought hey last round I did everything I could to this guy I boxed beautifully that's what Kevin Barry said in the corner and the guy still stand-in there so okay maybe I get him in around 9:00 in the meantime I'm gonna win this round I mean he can win this round just Jabby there's not much Liam I could dilute win that round to stop that combination and another combination the a PI is leaning forward every time Park the punches I think this will be an excellent chance to catch Mia by by suprise with a big uppercut there's a jab and a right hand those landed those are scoring shots let's see that they're the if I just bent down he doesn't even know the bottom will be right for Parker to pick them up with the right hook I mean I'm sorry right uppercuts or left up okay live I tried to time that list with the uppercuts of Parker's able to leave under the hooks and get out of danger is not just standing there ready to get hit he applies a tough guy whether it's the referee or his corner after this round I'd say you gotta show me really yeah there's four rounds left I kind of have to think the same thing you take care further man absolutely he's but in this fight in the points yeah but he's I hate to say it this way is he hurt enough I mean you know we're not winning but I mean you kind of knew that going in right I'm not sure that it's I'm not sure that you have to show that he's hurt he is taking some power shots round after round big heavy then I think it's the corners job first if you and I don't disagree with you at any point if the corner thinks you know what our men's getting hurt he gave it a shot let's get out of here I agree with that that's exactly what I said here it's the corner that should do it cuz the referees doing a great job the corner should look into it they know they're men they know he's gonna be a street he can absorb that punishment but it's up to the corners to do it no they're they're gonzalez is having a quick chat perhaps he said that that'd be nice put your head around [Music] if I go back give me a towel place [Music] well I'm not gonna let you just pay below 40 you're not gonna try punches no Terrell punches at the light [Music] you never you never collide you you never left you later on and watch later she coming off the break that guy come back together I want you to leave this [Music] still pop it in the locker room there is to be truce and drink any running for the main event staying relaxed that's no Thornberry in the corner for Alex Lea PI and it seemed like for a moment at least he was saying you got a throw now he didn't say you got a thrower I'm gonna stop it you figured that would be the next step he told them you got to show me something that's that stop boxing lingo floor hey man I'm getting really close to stopping this to be taking too much punishment so Chris Thomas good job thanks dad maybe should be a train chris is just a little more merciful than the rest of us certainly you you know if you're gonna put him in there then you have to let him make a professional effort he has done that Parker from the very start established that he was in charge it's a matter of reapplies output novice point he now he's just pinned up against the ropes I could see his corner stopping this man damn bear he's getting up on his feet talking to the other Coulter cornermen here but I don't see no one saw anything like that would they keep getting hit like that see there man getting hit like that against the world so just attend to this then this is what we say at the start of every fight now I'm tired of actually saying it but say only the referee can stop the fight it's not true the corner can stop a fight in the court if the corner man steps up right now you don't even have to have a towel you know up top white talent you could just wave to the referee and say that's it and they'll stop the fight and credit to lea by here before exactly what he's going to tell them no i'll Thornberry his trainer told him throw that overhand right here respected and sure enough do it right there and partially landed it Parker's output is diminished someone here in the ninth round - enough to win these rounds sir this Glasgow jab or jab to the body I love him Pakistan ejecta the body especially the new heavy-lift though hard right hand by Parker just as you think he is easing off and his work rate slows he's able to pick it back up and I'm telling you Brian those peaches hurt and it's like they're blocked but they're straight right has all the force and the technique is behind that bad habits with leverage even though it's black it still resonates it still hurts you I think so if you're Lea PI you're still being jolted by the shot by Parker we have I trying with the right hand there missed with the wild shot Joseph Parker getting himself into tremendous condition for this fight I see the white tower maybe I seen the raw truth Torino with a white towel you think they're gonna stop it oh yeah the white zone is that I've been at the white towel just to come into the corner and wipe off all night [Music] Alex big breath deep breath [Music] now [Music] I just hug you later just break it up that's what I'm calling for you know here's something we don't see that on the bride beautiful left uppercut bands and a spot a smidge of blood lands right on our camera credit to the cameraman first thing you do and it's ride they're good but in effect easy work but good work for Joseph Parker tonight been one of the top heavyweights in the world and I mentioned Andi Ruiz win over Anthony Joshua really just opening up the division Tyson Fury taking care of his work last time out Deontay Wilder as well so all the top heavy weights on the two top heavyweights winning Anthony Joshua was considered the number one heavyweight in the world stunned by Andi Ruiz they're gonna rematch with that fight but Joseph Parker wants to be there as they're all looking for opponents and top challenges at Parker at 27 should be there he looks terrific tonight he hits terrific game and he told us he's reaching his man Street he's going into a second chapter of his career where he can become horrible on a sit down puncher and get that leverage still poppy on the jab still box on his front foot on his back foot but you can come forward and now with leverage as well that's a hard right hand by Parker as well just a short right now when he starts to think to the body has not gone to the body for a while Parker has even seemingly tired of strafing those shots to the body now he's back to work hard jabs uppercuts leaning heavily on Leah pie those are heavy shots at coffee or anything Leigha pipes 39 years old the resistance to take a punch really falls when the older you get so in these shots really are resonating especially for myself I'm 39 years old the bow topper punch is right there my trainer was fun thank you twice yeah this is cease to be competitive but it is not as it Parker is doing so much damage that Ricky Gonzalez I think should step in though that's a hard jab and right hand Gonzalez not really taking a close look maybe he is now he steps a hook just as I say that Gonzalez starts Tech course or body shot [Applause] as we look to the corner but it doesn't appear as though no Thornbury is going to end this fight right hand now Gonzales says that's enough oh it's a bright car right there by Ricky Gonzales [Applause] crowd booing but I think ins Ollis was looking for a reason it had stopped being a competitive mountain Chris Mannix you brought that up about two rounds ago at a certain point it's just there's no reason to continue I understand that and we have seen far too many times to be honest guys have serious injuries but it doesn't look like they immediately happy without a concussive fall down naca you've seen guys long-term have long-term problems have taken beatings just like the one they invited now Leah pie also has a history of eye injuries again at a certain point and I do believe it's the corner the corner is supposed to be you know the first defense there in looking out for the interests of their own man but they want to be competitive they know Leah Pie's a tough guy and I think that was Sergio the right moment and a hard right hand and then a vicious uppercut where Leah pie is not going down but Ricky Gonzalez said hey look that's enough this sport tough ain't enough it never will be enough and I think if if Leah Pie's corner if it's trainer Noel thorn Burt Mary wasn't gonna stop this fight congratulations just credit to Ricky Gonzales the referee for stopping it because he's been in there and many many fights where fighters do get injured after the fight too much punishment was being absorbed and I thought he picked the right time and just as I was saying it doesn't look like Gonzalez is looking at that moment he got close and then at the moment of too hard budding shots he said okay early on Parker came out firing Sergio and he looked fluid smooth and hard-hitting just as he will get the sensational knock out nothing mean there wasn't enough and a type of performance I mean he threw punches from everywhere yes Lea PI was a stationary target but he still have those heavy hands he still had to be careful just like right there get the two left hooks in between the combination of Parker but Parker kept this with the bottom he kept his distance body shots jab he knew he had a tough man in front of them took his foot off the gas for a little bit finish strong and finally did what the advice corner wouldn't do it stopped the fight just jolting shots they're just straight my hands I mean look he's a right-handed punch oh those are clean right hands mean landed and then he takes it downstairs and there's a stop that right there with that right uppercut just the right stop it's an excellent job by Ricki Hills outlet and at that point he's teeing off again you saw the straight right and the uppercut and look there's a lot of kinship there between two Samoans they didn't even like fighting each other let's go into the rig now and get the official announcement ladies and gentlemen referee Ricky Gonzalez calls a halt to this contest the official time of the stoppage two minutes and 18 seconds of round number 10 the winner by TKO from Auckland New Zealand Joseph [Music] good sportsmanship there Alex Liam I gave his best effort again 39 years old had already been retired for a year and a half has been back the last two years did everything he could what do you think of Parker Sergio I mean I on just even look back at the highlights I'd forgotten how fast he looked in those opening rounds and I'm a big fan of Joseph Parker I love the punch selection I like how miffed he was on his feet for a big man he told middleweight combinations I think he turned a lot of heads here in a booming heavyweight division Parker with an outstanding performance take a look at some of the copy box numbers fairly obvious how this worked out punches landed 198 242 Parker good work rate as well over 500 punches thrown and landing at a percentage of 36% power punches landing at 53% and out landing Lee applied despite a wide wide March [Music]
