Joseph Parker bitten by a spider!

[aboutfkntime]

There are poisonous spider in NZ, though not as many as in OZ. And according to the report, Parker could have been bitten before he left NZ.

Parker's manager David Higgins earlier told the Herald that trainer Kevin Barry had identified a "sore" in the fighter's thigh as soon as he got into camp, and thought it looked like a spider bite.

there is the katipo... it supposedly killed someone once, but I have never heard of anyone dying from a katipo bite... haven't seen a katipo here for 30 years

and I think they found a few funnel-web spiders up north... over from aussie... but yea not much else can hurt you down here

it probbaly happened over there

it sounds like bullshlt hah not sure

The poisenous spiders are in OZ not NZ, and JP doesnt even train in NZ anyways, he trains in Vegas..

There are poisonous spiders in Nevada (Brown Recluse, Brown Widow)

****, imagine leaving NZ/AZ and getting bit by a poisonous spider in America?

It could have even been a tick bite. Those things can ruin some future plans LOL. I am thinking Tick because he never noticed it when he got bitten. Ticks you cannot feel. Most spider bites you can feel unless distracted.

I think its all a lie and away to get the card removed as they were pissed about it from the jump

Seems like Joseph Parker was bitten by a poisonous spider while training for Chisora. Joe should chose his sparring partners more carefully in future!

Seriously though, this isn't as crazy as it might seem. There are a lot of venomous creepy crawlies down under.

He was training in Vegas. The "spider bite" is really gonorrhea from a hooker.

then they wouldnt have agreed to the fight in the first place

it was chisora who got sulky about it after anyway if only to hype it up
