Curtis Parker was my teammate on a few National boxing Tournaments and he was always buzzaw in the ring,and with the result of this fight Curtis ended the nightmare of other great Philadelphia Legends of being knocked out by David Love.
At 29-9 with 21 KOs, USBA Middleweight champion Curtis Parker should've gone further in his boxing career, but he ran into a number of really good fighters around 1980 and later in the 1980's that cut his momentum short. (Wars with the likes of Mustafa Hamsho & his type can do that to a fighter!) Still, he was a quality fighter and his fights were always entertaining!
Good morning while that may be well said any boxing knowledgeable will tell you fighting four ranked contenders in successive bouts is poor management. This more than anything else is what ruined what should've been a spectacular career.
I think Love fought well but lost but he did beat bad Bennie B yo at times he looked good firing some nice stinging shots at times it looked like he might pull a stoppage but not so but he showed me he's a decent boxer did himself honor its not like he got kod and embarrassed
Love was good better than average but nothing special. He did beat Briscoe but an ageing faded Bennie never a prime one. A prime Briscoe would've stopped him in five or less.
Parker,Animal fletcher and hard rock green were never in a bad fight.
Wow this is a fight I always heard of but I never saw. Thank you so much for posting

This is my first time seeing this fight
Great fight Love was throwing and stinging parker who was smoking brawling love got tired but he had his moments
Thought we lost your channel coach!! Thank Christ we didn’t.
Ferdie described Parker as a "great puncher". no he was not.
Love was 31-16-2? He was not a national class fighter much less world class.
Love was soft.
