Otto Wallin: Swedish southpaw weighs Deontay Wilder and Joseph Parker
Swedish southpaw Otto Wallin discussed openly about the coming bout between Deontay Wilder and Joseph Parker recently, while preparing himself to fight former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
As is usual when a fighter has special abilities, Wilder’s right hand is been much spoken about ahead of the fight. Wallin weighed both fighters’ abilities and said how Parker can win Wilder.
Speaking to TalkSport, Wallin said, ‘With Parker, I think he really has to let it all hang and go after him.
‘I watched his fight yesterday with Joshua and he has to take it to Wilder cause if he stays on the outside he’s going to get knocked out.’
Tyson Fury left an advice for Joseph Parker not long ago, telling him to stay away from Wilder’s right hand. Fury himself knows what whoever ignored the instruction was going to get, since he fell by Wilder’s fists several times during their title trilogy which dethroned Wilder.
‘I see Wilder as the favourite but I don’t think it’s going to be easy,’ Wallin said. ‘Parker is a great fighter and he has been active whereas Wilder has not which I think might be a problem for Wilder.’
