Former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder assured that he would have time to prepare for the battle against Joseph Parker, despite the fact that he accepted it as soon as possible.
“Joseph Parker is the name that was suggested to me. It's a very short notice for me, but when you're in boxing, you have to be prepared for them just as you would be prepared for the months of preparation when you know who you're going to fight.
I like short notices too, because as they say, you have to stay prepared so you don’t have to prepare. This is the ideal situation for this saying. There have been many situations in my career where I stayed prepared so that I wouldn’t have to prepare. Even though it’s a short training camp, it’s going great,” Wilder said in an interview with The Last Stand Podcast.
Let us remind you that the Wilder-Parker fight will take place on December 23 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
