    Confidence from boxer Joseph Parker's manager that they'll soon be free to discuss more details around the former heavyweight world champion's positive drugs test


    The former WBO belt holder is facing a ban from the sport after testing positive for what British media have reported is cocaine on the day of his October 27 defeat to Fabio Wardley in London.

    Parker has denied the charges and said he was confident an investigation would clear his name.

    Manager David Higgins says more will soon be revealed.
