    A more mature and experienced Joseph Parker will look to become a two-time world heavyweight champion in early 2025

    A more mature and experienced Joseph Parker will look to become a two-time world heavyweight champion in early 2025


    That's the call from boxing commentator Mike Angove -with Parker set to challenge Britain's Daniel Dubois for the IBF title in Saudi Arabia next February.

    The Kiwi last fought for a fully-fledged world title in 2018, when he lost his WBO belt to rival Anthony Joshua.

    Angove says plenty has changed since - including Parker bringing in Andy Lee as his new trainer.
