    Low blow Joe

    Low blow Joe


    That from Mexican-American boxer Alexander Flores, following his heavyweight bout loss to Kiwi Joseph Parker in Christchurch.

    While Parker claimed the win with the knockout, it came following two shots below his opponents belt.

    Flores has expressed his disdain for it, a move Parker's trainer Kevin Barry's frustrated over.

    He says he challenges anyone who says the low blows take the gloss off the win.

    He says Flores lost because he was knocked out, not because of a low blow.
