Anthony Joshua's victory reflects well on Joseph Parker but British champ still in a different league MARVIN FRANCEMATT DUNHAM/AP Anthony Joshua drops Alexander Povetkin on the way to another victory at Wembley. OPINION: It is not so much what might have been but feelings of frustration for Joseph Parker would have undoubtedly bubbled to the surface after watching Anthony Joshua sweep past another heavyweight contender. Joshua defended his IBF, WBA and WBO titles with a crushing seventh round knockout of Alexander Povetkin on Sunday (NZ time), extending his perfect record to 22-0. In the end Parker did not apply enough pressure on Joshua and Povetkin was far more assertive than he ever was. At this point in time, their careers are headed in different directions.
