The Panel: Has Kiwi boxing heavyweight Joseph Parker lost his mojo?

  • 30/07/2018

Kiwi heavyweight Joseph Parker faces some tough decisions over coming weeks, after suffering his second straight career defeat to Briton Dillian Whyte over the weekend.

Parker's commitment to boxing came under scrutiny after the fight, with some questioning whether he would return to the ring and, if so, would Kevin Barry continue as his trainer.

"Absolutely, it's time to question it," says former Blackcaps all-rounder Jimmy Neesham on RadioLIVE's Sunday Sport panel. "Sometimes, the act of changing - it doesn't matter what it's to or from - creates a bit more desire.

"It's just something different. You need to prove yourself again to someone new and that just lights the fire, even if the new person isn't any better than the old person."

Catch the full panel debate, featuring Neesham, hosts Andrew Gourdie and Jim Kayes, and former Warriors assistant coach Justin Morgan.
