Joe Joyce vs. Joseph Parker: Live Stream, Betting Odds & Fight Card

Coming off a huge boxing weekend, it’s fight week for the big boys, which means heavyweight boxing! Undefeated heavyweight contender Joe Joyce (14-0) takes on former heavyweight champion Joseph Parker (30-2) live from the Manchester Arena in the U.K. This one looks to be a 50/50 fight, and the winner will certainly be in the best position for a shot at the heavyweight crown next year.

Fans have expressed a desire to get behind the thirty-seven-year-old Joyce, but he doesn’t give you much to desire other than his real punching power. He last fought in July against Christian Hammer (27-10), who he made quick work of, getting him out of there in four rounds. What we haven’t seen is Joyce fight a guy who can move around the ring and box well. This is where Joseph Parker comes in. How will the “Juggernaut” handle the veteran Parker, who moves a little more than his previous opponents and has fought a higher level of fighters?

It seems like Joseph Parker has been fighting for years, but he is only thirty years old, so he still has quite a few years left to compete in the heavyweight division. Parker is coming off of back-to-back wins against Derek Chisora (33-12), but that was last year. When he steps into the ring on Saturday, Parker will be ten months removed from his previous fight, so there may be some ring rust for the New Zealander. Can Parker use his experience to outbox the older Joyce?
