    Joseph Parker insists he has no fears facing power-punching Martin Bakole in Riyadh this morning

    Joseph Parker insists he has no fears facing power-punching Martin Bakole in Riyadh this morning


    Bakole stepped up to take the bout at the last minute when IBF champion Daniel Dubois withdrew with a viral infection...and Parker has a simple message for the opponent most heavyweights try to avoid.



    Parker weighed in at a career-heaviest 121 kilos.

    The fight is expected to start shortly after 10 o'clock.
