Undefeated heavyweight Joe Joyce (15-0, 14 KOs) knocked out former world champion Joseph Parker (30-3, 21 KOs) in the eleventh round to claim the interim WBO heavyweight title on Saturday night in the AO Arena in Manchester, England. Joyce sent the jab repeatedly and quickly caused damage to Parker’s face. Joyce continued to outbox Parker in the middle rounds. Parker landed the portion of his shots, but they apparently had little effect on Joyce.
Joyce finally closed out the show by dropping Parker with a crushing left hook in round eleven and Parker couldn’t beat the count. The time was 1:03.
