“When I'm not boxing, I play instruments.” — Joseph Parker Quote

“When I'm not boxing, I play instruments.”

“There are good life skills to be had in the sport. It is a big positive to see young kids coming to the gym, training hard, looking up to the likes of David Tua, Shane Cameron, and possibly myself.”

“As a father, you want to protect, but I also want to prepare her for when she grows up, so I want to be a great example as a dad.”

“I want to bring something new to boxing.”

“Boxing is the sweet science. You hit and not get hit. There's no reward for you to hit me more than I hit you other than on the scorecards.”

“Boxing life is very interesting life; it opened many doors for me around the world, but now I am ready to invest my energy and my experience and my power for the future.”
