Joseph Parker: Kiwi heavyweight boxer ahead of his bout with Fabio Wardley
Manage episode 512928042 series 2381147
Joseph Parker admits he's wary of the latest heavyweight standing in the way of another shot at a world boxing belt.
The Kiwi faces big-hitting Brit Fabio Wardley in London in just over a fortnight, with a hopeful title fight against undisputed Ukrainian champion Oleksandr Usyk sometime early next year.
Parker says he's watched Wardley's last few fights, and he always finds a way to step it up and get the results, with 18 K-Os in his 19 wins.
But he told Piney that he feels like for this fight, Wardley’s stepped up a little too far.
“I do feel like with the experience that I have, I know he possesses power, but like I say to all the other fighters that I’ve fought, like, bring it on.”
