Many Welsh boxing fans will be cheering for the Kiwi, throwing support behind Joseph Parker over Anthony Joshua when the two come face to face in Cardiff next week.

Ahead of the world heavyweight title unification fight at Cardiff's Principality Stadium, 1 NEWS Sport presenter Andrew Saville took to the streets to gauge local feeling towards the bout.

Unsurprisingly, many Welsh fans will be cheering for New Zealand, rather than their English rivals come the start of the April 1 fight.

"Wales will be supporting the Kiwi," one fan told 1 NEWS.

"You've got to be a New Zealander beating the Englishman, surely," said another.

One fan simply refused to comment, afraid of the ramifications from English fans nearby.
