Hopefully he's not going to land any good punches on Joseph - Parker's mum

"He's dangerous, strong and muscular but hopefully he's not going to land any good punches on Joseph."

This was highlighted  by Joseph Parker’s mum, Sala Parker ahead of the heavyweight boxing title fight between her son and Anthony Joshua next month.

She says Joshua is the clear favorite of the fight, but she is confident that her son can outbox Joshua.

Parker's trainer Kevin Barry is confident the New Zealander can beat Joshua when the two boxers put their unbeaten records on the line.

Meanwhile, Joshua says he will pray for Parker to leave the ring in good health after their fight on April 1st.

Parker has won 24 fights and 18 by knockouts and Joshua has won 20 fights winning all his fights by knockout.

Anthony Joshua will put his IBF, IBO and WBA belts on the line, while Parker's WBO strap will also go to the victor.
