Barry talks up latest Joseph Parker opponent

He’s not Anthony Joshua or Dillian Whyte but Kevin Barry is adamant Alexander Flores is no easy beat.

Joseph Parker’s team have been vocal that their man needs an eye-catching performance to get him back on track following loses to undefeated heavyweight kingpin Joshua (22-0) and the highly rated Whyte (24-1).

Parker (24-2) returns to the ring in Christchurch on December 15 against the little known Flores.

He has a creditable record (17-1-1), has a high knock out ratio and earlier this year linked with legendary fighter turned promoter Roy Jones Jr.

The same height as Parker and just 18-months older, Flores is neither too small or too old but whether he is in Parker’s class is the question.
