Where there is no smoke there is no fire sometimes is proved right in boxing and that is the case for fight talks on Joseph Parker it looks.
Joseph Parker is the former WBO heavyweight champion of the world but is a man in resurgent form at the moment.
A true warrior but a smarter boxer than before. Under Irishman Andy Lee as his trainer he has really come along the last couple of years.
Joseph Parker Looks To Be Moving On From Usyk For Now – New Opponent Close
It turns out according to multiple sources now, Parker is in fact close to signing to fight Fabio Wardley.
Most people appear to think October is what is being looked at.
That leaves undisputed champion Oleksandr Usyk likely gone for the year as he is under repair from a back injury he has said recently.
That can change though depending on his medical exemption request being granted or not by the WBO.
Don’t write off Usyk vs Parker yet but it looks like Parker will fight Wardley instead now.
Confirmation if so, shortly.
