Boxing: Joseph Parker on standby as confirmation of Anthony Joshua fight a step closer

Joseph Parker's promoter David Higgins has concluded a "very constructive" three-hour meeting with Anthony Joshua's representative Eddie Hearn in London, and Parker is now on standby to fly to the United Kingdom to face the man with the highest profile in the heavyweight division. Higgins is hopeful the final details of the fight contract will be ironed out in a couple of days after his productive face-to-face with Hearn only hours after arriving in England's capital.
