Joseph Parker says he will respond with a defiant smile if Anthony Joshua's punches cannot put a dent in his renowned chin during their world title unification clash set to take place on March 31, at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. According to Sky Sports, the New Zealander holds a proud reputation of never being floored in his unbeaten career ahead of his heavyweight fight with Joshua. He vowed to crush Joshua by putting up his best display when they both meet.


"If he hits me in the chin and doesn't hurt me then obviously I'll smile and try my best to hit him back. I think some fighters when they throw a punch and throw everything they have and it doesn't affect the other person, it might crush them a bit.


"In boxing, some fighters have good chins. You just have to be persistent and continue following the plan and trying to catch them nicely, and obviously hope to be knocking him out. I know that if I got him into the trouble (Wladimir) Klitschko got him into, I wouldn't have let him off the pedal. I would put the pedal down and have chased him around."
