TRANSCRIPT
JOSEPH
PARKER: Probably is the last time I will be doing
this because after this fight we are looking at fighting in
different countries and all around the world so we have to
establish ourselves in different areas so I am going to make
the most of this last opportunity to fight here in New
Zealand
KEVIN BARRY: Look we usually
arrive here two weeks before each fight, it’s something
we’ve done over and over again over the last four years,
it works very well for our team. We
acclimatise.
JOSEPH PARKER: He’s not
even here yet and hopefully they do come. The fight is
scheduled to happen May 6 and I hope they do come down so
they can see what it’s all about, see what New
Zealand’s about but also see what my fists can do in the
ring.
KEVIN BARRY: Look there’s still
two weeks out to the fight, there’s plenty of time for
them to arrive, we made an offer to them a while back that
they could come out here six weeks before the fight. Every
international team that we’ve bought out here in the last
four years, we’ve been very, very accomodating to them,
we’ve put them in the best hotels, we’ve had drivers
with them, we’ve flown them very well and it surprise me
that they are leaving it to this late stage to arrive
down.
JOSEPH PARKER: He’s never done
jet-lag before, so for someone who hasn’t done it before,
they should be down here acclimatising to the time and all
sorts of stuff like that, I’ve done it before so I know
what it takes to get my body used to it and I know I will be
ready so I’m not sure how they’ll react to it but lets
see what happens.
It’s been an amazing week, the last
week in Vegas has been great. Great sparring, great
training, pad work, bag work, skipping, all of that so just
let me show you what I’ve been doing in training in the
ring when it comes May 6.
