Joseph Parker has weighed in on Sunday's bout between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder in Los Angeles, saying he fancies his chances against either heavyweight.

With Sunday's bout ending in a controversial draw,  the boxing world has been quick to react to the fight, with talk of a rematch between Fury and Wilder starting to grow louder.

Arriving in Auckland from Las Vegas this morning ahead of his fight with Mexican-American Alexander Flores on December 15 in Christchurch, Parker spoke about how he viewed the fight, saying: "Watching that fight, I wanted to be in there."

"I could have given both fighters problems, if I had the chance to fight them.

"But, I have to get rid of this guy (Flores) first."

Parker and Flores will square off at Christchurch's Horncastle Arena on December 15.
