Anthony Joshua

Klitschko, who is entering his 29th world title fight, revealed on Thursday he has made a video of his prediction for their heavyweight bout at Wembley.

That has been saved on a memory stick which will be sewn into his robe.

"It's strategy," said Joshua, 27. "An attempt at a mind game. I didn't take it the way he wanted to express it."

Former heavyweight champion Klitschko, 41, will auction his robe - and its contents - for charity after the Wembley Stadium super fight for Joshua's IBF title and the vacant WBA belt.

Parker, the World Boxing Organisation champion, makes his maiden defence against Fury at Auckland's Vector Arena.

NZ Herald reports Joshua, the International Boxing Federation titleholder, and Klitschko, the former IBF, WBO and World Boxing Association champion, fight for the vacant WBA belt at London's Wembley Stadium.

A total of 90,000 tickets are understood to have been sold for the latter fight alongside an expected million pay-per-view passes, courtesy of an exclusive deal with BSkyB. Budgets suggest the fight will generate more than 50 million in revenue.

Parker's future as WBO champion continues to grab headlines as the clouded heavyweight division looks to map a path towards one dominant fighter.

Wilder, the WBC champion has called out Parker saying he wants to fight the Kiwi next.

Joseph Parker's WBO belt gives him bargaining options as his handlers plot a path forward for the New Zealand heavyweight.

Klitschko says he will only take the December 10 fight in Manchester if the WBA belt is on the line too.

The WBA and WBO belts have been freed up by Tyson Fury who handed them over to concentrate on his battles with depression and drug use.

Joshua's manager Eddie Hearn said the next 48 hours would be vital as they seek a ruling from the WBA. In the meantime he confirmed he is looking at other options.

Hearn's easiest backup route is to call out Parker who is the mandatory challenger with the IBF.

The big Brit has started a 10-week training camp ahead of his November 26 IBF title defence in Manchester.

Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn is set to reveal the opponent on September 26.

Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev and Canada's Bermane Stiverne are the favoured options though Parker, because of his mandatory challenger's position, is also in the frame.

Hearn has indicated he would prefer to have Parker fight David Price on the undercard as a way of introducing the Kiwi to the British market and building hype towards a showdown with Joshua in London in March.

RNZI reports Joshua knocked out American Dominic Breazeale in the seventh round in London to hold onto the belt.

Unbeaten Joshua dominated from the start but the 30-year-old Breazeale proved a durable opponent, absorbing some thunderous blows from the 2012 Olympic champion before succumbing.

Parker, who moved to 18-0-KO16 by beating Jason Bergman two weeks ago, is one of many who have called out the British and Commonwealth champion in recent weeks.

Joshua's next opponent – who will not be Dereck Chisora- is expected to be confirmed by the end of the week but the 26-year-old made it clear that he is more than happy to take on Parker.
