Anthony Joshua and Joseph Parker

Anthony Joshua claims he will use a sniper's approach to break the spirit and mentality of Joseph Parker.

A fired‑up Joshua spoke of his determination to prove the Kiwis wrong for questioning him and hinted at some new tactics.

In an often bitter buildup Parker's handlers, most notably promoter David Higgins and trainer Kevin Barry, have questioned Joshua's chin and stamina and also suggested Parker had the better skills to cope with this situation.

Anthony Joshua is confident he has the better skills than Joseph Parker and plans to show them in Cardiff.

WBA and IBF champion Joshua takes on WBO champion Parker in a world heavyweight unification fight in Cardiff on Sunday.

He believed he could counter everything that Parker's bosses were drilling into the 26‑year‑old Kiwi about the big Brit's supposed weaknesses.
