What are they saying?
Joseph
Parker on Anthony Joshua's 'glass chin'
All we have
said is that Joshua has a glass chin.
We know it, he knows it, everybody knows it, they just don't talk about it.
We saw him
get dropped by Wladimir Klitschko but he still had the heart to get up and
finish the fight – I'll give him that – but if I catch him and hurt him I'm not
going to give him the chance to recover.I won't be letting him off the hook. If
I get him in the trouble Klitschko had him in, there is no chance for him. I'll
go in fast, I'll go in hard, and I'll go in for the kill. He won't be able to
recover against me.There was no disrespect.
We were just
stating facts that he's been dropped. It's a fact that he has been dropped if
not once, but many times in sparring. But with all these facts that we have, we
have always said that he is a good champion, a good fighter and that we respect
him.
We are just
saying that these are his weaknesses and that's all out there. There is proof
of it in the fights he's had and in the sparring he has had. There is no
disrespect there – it's just that no-one seems to talk about it. But his
weaknesses are there for all to see.
Anthony
Joshua on being 'dropped' in his career
There is a
lot of talk about me being dropped, but there have been only three times it has
happened.
The first
was the European Championships, when only two weeks before I had been called
back into the programme, because I was banned from the British team. I was very
unfit but I got stopped, not dropped.
The second
time was with David Price, when I had just come out [of] a police cell. Price
is a puncher and that was down to a lot of experience. And Klitschko taught me
that it will take more than a human to stop me from going where I am going. The
rumours they have heard are all fake news.
Joseph
Parker on Tyson Fury joining his ring walk
I might
give him a text and say, ‘Bro, do you want to walk in with me?'
He may just
walk in with me or he may just sit in the front row and watch the fight. But I
know I have a lot of support from Tyson, which is awesome.
Anthony
Joshua on Tyson Fury's possible cameo
It's good. It
brings attention to the sport It will be interesting because I am sure Fury
will try and do a little tag-team and do a few rounds for him. He's just got
that in his locker.
No matter
what he says outwardly, he has a lot of underlying respect for me and that's
just as a far as I know but I just take it with a pinch of salt. "I don't
take anything from him to heart and if he wants he is welcome to walk to the
ring.
What are the odds?
Anthony
Joshua 1/10
Joseph Parker 6/1
Draw 20/1
