According to Higgins, Anthony Joshua is fearful of the form of Joseph Parker and will not accept a rematch.
British-born Nigerian boxer Anthony Joshua has been accused of not wanting a massive fight.
According to the New Zealander’s promoter David Higgins, Joshua is aware of Joseph Parker’s threat and will not desire a rematch.
As Daniel Dubois was sidelined by illness, Parker defeated Martin Bakole a replacement via brutal knockout while Joshua watched from the ringside. .

Higgins, Parker’s promoter, is sceptical that Joshua will accept a rematch with the Kiwi.
With recent victories over Deontay Wilder, Zhilei Zhang, and Bakole, the former WBO world champion is having the best run of his career, despite Parker losing to Joshua on points in their first fight in 2018.
Following his victory over Martin Bakole, the WBO declared Parker Oleksandr Usyk’s mandatory opponent.
To regain the undisputed world heavyweight titles, Usyk is anticipated to rematch Dubois.
Joshua is expected to return to the ring later this year with his promoter working on a fight against the retired Tyson Fury.
