He did it again – Joseph Parker broke the internet once more on Thursday with ANOTHER brilliant video as his ever-growing collection of viral gold continues to wow boxing fans.
The Kiwi heavyweight has been terrific in and out of the ring in recent months – inside the ropes he has properly got back into world title contention with brilliant wins over Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang. He is now the mandatory contender for the WBO heavyweight belt currently held by Ukrainian genius Oleksandr Usyk.
But outside the ropes he’s been just as effective with a string of hilarious social media videos which have fight fans (and everybody else) in raptures.
Earlier this year, Parker kicked things off with a brilliant version of Take That’s ‘Back For Good’ as he called out Dillian Whyte for a rematch of their 2018 slugfest in London.
If that wasn’t enough, Joseph (35-3) followed up with Ed Sheeran’s ‘Lego House’ as he begged Anthony Joshua to run back their 2018 world title unification showdown in Cardiff, Wales.
Watch as Joseph Parker IS David Brent
Parker might have topped those beauties though with his latest effort – channelling his inner David Brent with a team meeting (‘The Office’ style) to discuss options for his next fight with his team.
The end result – as ever with Parker and his genius producer Kerry Russell – is pretty spectacular and immediately went viral as fans shared with glee. You can watch it right here…
Parker of course is actually waiting to find out who his next opponent will be. He was supposed to have been facing that man Zhang in a rematch of their March showdown in Riyadh. But ‘Big Bang’ has headed off in another direction for now to face Deontay Wilder in Saudi on June 1.
Meanwhile the big question of the days is what will a certain Ricky Gervais make of that video? We await the verdict from Reading…
