Joseph Parker has vowed to detonate Anthony Joshua’s
chin and snatch his world heavyweight titles to unify the division at Cardiff
this month. The New Zealander, who holds
the WBO belt, made the bold claim during the pair's head-to-head on the
customary Gloves Are Off to build up to the showdown on March 31.
"He says I have a glass chin, I want to see if he
has the power. I don't think he has enough power in his hand to detonate on my
chin and knock me out," Joshua said on the The Gloves Are Off.
"Trust me, I have got the
power," the Kiwi replied.
Joshua then puts him on the
spot: "Are you going to knock me out?"
The intense
meeting between the pair then has a moment of silence, before Parker firmly
responds: "Yeah, of course I am."
Parker goes further, insisting
AJ will be exposed and detailing the former Olympic champion's weaknesses.
"I'm going to expose him.
He doesn't move as well as I do," Parker adds. "The way to beat him
would be speed and movement. I don't think he can catch me."
AJ was
reluctant to hit back and could not specify any of his opponent's weaknesses.
"I haven't fought him, I
couldn't say. But I'm going to punish him with every jab, every right hand and
every hook."
Joshua labelled Parker
"my second toughest fight because I put (Wladimir) Klitschko at No 1"
