Wilder questions Parker's power ahead of Usyk fight
Deontay Wilder has commented on Joseph Parker's power after Parker's recent second-round knockout of Martin Bakole. This victory marks Parker's sixth consecutive win, including three knockouts, as he aims for a world title shot. Wilder, who lost to Parker in December 2023, expressed skepticism about Parker's punching power, stating that none of Parker's punches affected him during their fight. Wilder holds a professional record of 36-3, with Parker having 24 knockouts in his career. The WBO has ordered Oleksandr Usyk to negotiate a fight with Parker after Parker defended his interim WBO title. This decision comes as Usyk was previously expected to face Daniel Dubois in a title unification bout.
