    Joseph Parker's explained why he believes Anthony Joshua has targeted mixed martial artist Francis Ngannou as his next boxing opponent

    Joseph Parker's explained why he believes Anthony Joshua has targeted mixed martial artist Francis Ngannou as his next boxing opponent


    The former British world champion will fight the former UFC heavyweight champion on March 10 in Saudi Arabia.

    Parker - who'd been hoping to fight Joshua himself - says it's likely to do with Ngannou's split decision loss to Tyson Fury in October.



    Parker hopes to secure a fight on the undercard of the Joshua-Ngannou bout.
