Joseph Parker has told Anthony Joshua he would inflict a 'lot of damage' on him when they both meet on March 31 in a unification bout billed to be held at Principality Stadium in Cardiff. According to Sky Sports, the WBO champion insists he is not concerned about travelling to Britain to face Joshua, the WBA 'super' and IBF title holder, at the Principality Stadium. Parker, who expressed relief after lengthy negotiations for the fight, sent out a warning to Joshua ahead of their press conference this week.
"We're here for business. It's finally done now, so I'm looking forward to getting back to training. Obviously training hard, putting in the work, and then coming with my team to put on a good show in March.
I can do a lot of damage. I feel like it's my time. He thinks it's his time, so it's just about who trains hardest, who wants it more and we're both going to put our undefeated records on the line. May the best champion win."
He's been down. Glass chin is just one of those things where my team come up with it to describe him and what his chin is, but I feel like I have a lot of respect for him. In the last fight I saw with [Wladimir] Klitschko, he got knocked down, got up, showed a lot of heart, so credit to him. I think when we come together we're both going to throw some big bombs. Someone is going to get knocked out."
