QUÉBEC CITY, Quebec — As a boxing fan, it’s hard to capture a more satisfying feeling than seeing two heavyweights slug it out. The chance of a knockout grows exponentially when you’re dealing with the big boys. Canadian heavyweight, Simon Kean enhances this notion. The 6’5 Kean, also known as, “The Grizzly” has 22 knockouts in his 23 wins with the only exception dating back to 2017. He has also defeated every man he’s ever stepped in the ring with after avenging his only defeat against Dillon Carman just 8 months later by 3rd round TKO. However, on October 28th, he faces his toughest challenge to date in former heavyweight champion, Joseph Parker in Saudi Arabia. Parker, 32-3 with 22 knockouts has faced the likes of Anthony Joshua, Andy Ruiz, Alexander Dimitrenko, Dillian Whyte, and Derek Chisora. Kean fully understands what he’s up against but is determined to shock the world. The bout will take place on the Tyson Fury- Francis Ngannou card.
Kean shares his thoughts on Joseph Parker, the event, and outcome with Zenger News.
