“He’s (Joseph Parker) in the game to fight whoever, whenever and that’s the DNA of a real general,“ Joshua wrote on Instagram. ”Unlike his dippy mate Tyson Fury. I would [dissect] his career/record in minutes but I’ll leave that for a potential gloves are off, if he ever comes back and fights Big Femi.“

“To my supporters, I’ll be back to lace up my boots and put on my gloves sooner than later,” Joshua added. “Hopefully punching Fury’s head in and dancing around his flicker jab with ease.“
