It’s been a turbulent year for Kiwi heavyweight Joseph Parker.
After his loss to Fabio Wardley in London last October, Parker was provisionally suspended after returning a positive drug test.
This week, the UK’s Anti-Doping Agency lifted that suspension, clearing him to return to the ring.
Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn joined Piney to discuss where Parker sits in the heavyweight hierarchy following his return.
He also weighs in on the unbeaten Australian up-and-comer Teremoana Teremoana, who headlines in Australia next week against fellow knockout artist DeAndre Savage.
