Joseph Parker's face battered and bruised after brutal 11th round Joe Joyce KO

Joseph Parker has admitted he still feels like he has "a lot to give Boxing" in the aftermath of his 11th round knockout defeat at the hands of Joe Joyce.

Parker, who has previously gone the distance with both Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte, could not handle the brutal left hook of Joyce. The London-born 37-year-old delivered a stunning punch to win the WBO interim heavyweight title at the Manchester Arena.

As for his opponent, Parker gave as good as he got and certainly hurt Joyce at times. He found joy with some powerful leading shots to the new interim champion's chin, but they were too few and far between to muster up any kind of real momentum.
