Joyce vs Parker fighter quotes:
Joyce
“You’ve been in the sport for a long time – a seasoned veteran. I imagine he is seeing a psychologist, so maybe there is some weakness in his mental abilities that he needs to work on.
“I don’t think there’s going to be an easy night against me, and he’s going to find that out with real time shots to the head, body and everything.
“He sees me as a lump, and this big lump is going to come to him on Saturday night.
“I have had a great camp with my team, and Salas has been sending me little clips of what I need to work on the fight.
“We are well prepared and have done all the biomechanics and polished all my skills. It was really great to have that last fight against Hammer to show that I can take three or four right hands up front.
“I am in a better place and I will improve in everything that I need in this fight. But I feel like I’m in the best place and what a great opponent in Joseph Parker.
“I just want to put on my gloves and fight him after this little chat session.”

“I don’t really care what he thinks or what his opinion is about my power or how I fight. He will prove it on Saturday night.
“I have done the work and stand behind everything Andy [Lee] He says. We’ve been in the gym every day working with Tyson [Fury] joining our runs and workouts, cheering us on with positive vibes.
“Everything has been marked in this camp, so there are no excuses and no doubts. I will go in there and I will win, and I will win well. Joe Joyce has a style.
“I don’t see any adjustment or any change. It just depends on how I present myself.
“I see a lump when I look at him, a big man, a man who is confident and ready. He’s going to be stopped in his tracks.
“I really believe that. I am very confident going into this fight. Exaggerated train.
