I heard he looked like shit in one fight where he arguably lost, which is crazy because he's fought no oneI'll need to watch some Fa fights before I vote, hope I can find some. Just had a look at his boxrec and only recognise one name.
Never going to happen then, alright.Haven't heard much from Junior Fa. Here's his take on things :

Junior Fa says he was too 'smart' for Joseph Parker in their final amateur fight and seeks repeat performance
Junior Fa says he was toowww.skysports.com
"We're going into the finer details, making sure there is no grey area in the contract" - Fa.
"We just want to make sure everything is airtight, so it's basically me versus him".
Hard to know what Fa is thinking? A $500,000 pay check should be very attractive to him. But maybe he is playing the long game and thinks if he avoids trouble long enough eventually something extremely lucrative with fall in his lap. Something akin to Mark de Mori getting the fight with David Haye.Never going to happen then, alright.
Like I said in the Lopez/Lomachenko thread, as soon as you hear shit like this, it's done. Fight will hit every fucking curve imaginable.
The WBO have elevated Daniel Dubois to number 2. Above Joseph Parker who has been dropped down to number 3.
Who cares you ask? There is little else to care about in these parts at the present time.As for Fa, he's got a long reach, and knows how to use it, plus he goes to the body like Rocky Balboa.
- But his defense is basically non-existent, and his offense is extremely one-dimensional.
He might be able to keep Parker off him & do some damage, due to his reach, but the aggressive Parker of old (does he still exist? ) would probably eat him for lunch.
Well, at the end of the day, who the heck cares about this fight, anyway?
"In the past, I've been too safe and not taking the risks that I need,” Joseph Parker said.
“From now on it's going to be a lot more aggression and you've got to throw punches to win. Hopefully it's going to be a lot of combinations and punches in bunches".

Joseph Parker eager to debut 'punches in bunches' fighting style against Junior Fa
The Kiwi rivals have yet to finalise a deal but if they do, Parker has sent Fa a firm warning.www.tvnz.co.nz
