In a social media video, he says: “I heard Joseph Parker wants to fight me in the March on Joshua and Ngannou undercard, so I’m very happy to hear that. I’m ready. I accept your offer, Joe, let’s do it.”
He added confidently: “Let’s go, baby, let’s get down, let’s get down to business, see you soon.”
IBF Situation
Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk is scheduled for February 17, and the winner of that fight could vacate the IBF strap rather than face Hrgovic, ranked number one. With Joshua facing Ngannou, it opens the door for the Croatian fighter to box Parker for the potentially vacant IBF belt on the March 8 card.
