    Joseph Parker's been met with an unfamiliar reception at his weigh in for tomorrow's heavyweight boxing bout against Mexican-American Alexander Flores

    Joseph Parker's been met with an unfamiliar reception at his weigh in for tomorrow's heavyweight boxing bout against Mexican-American Alexander Flores


    The Kiwi was cheered when he stepped on the scales in Christchurch, a feeling he says he's not used to.

    He says it's good to be back in New Zealand and have the support of New Zealanders, because unlike when he's away, locals want him to win.

    Parker's weighed in at 109.25 kilograms with Flores tipping the scales at 107.95kgs.
