Joseph Parker calls out Anthony Joshua for rematch with bizarre video that sees him paint and sing along to Ed Sheeran

Parker even included a hilarious tribute to a famous comedy film in the music video

JOSEPH PARKER continued his hilarious call-out videos by singing Ed Sheeran as he eyes a rematch with Anthony Joshua.

The New Zealand heavyweight, 32, has already petitioned for a second clash with Dillian Whyte by posting a music video to the Take That song “Back For Good”.

And on Wednesday morning he then shared a 90-second clip of him starring in a similar video with Ed Sheeran’s track “Lego House” over the top.

In the footage, Parker starts off working on a painting that is obscured by the camera angle.

He then puts it up on the wall, before it cuts to clips of the build up to his first fight with Joshua which Parker lost by unanimous decision in 2018.

It then goes back to Parker who can be seen playing guitar and looking into the mirror.

The video moves on to in-ring clips of Parker beating Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang – separated by a shot of the Kiwi boxer opening a book to reveal the words “Joshua Parker 2”.

He also lines up little cuddly toys on his sofa which have Joshua’s face.

The video then moves on to Parker standing on stage with a wig and glasses as he dances and re-creates a scene from comedy film “Napoleon Dynamite”.

It cuts back to Parker in a house once more as he shows off a Lego boxing ring with “Joshua Parker 2” written around it and figures of the pair inside the ropes.

The video finally ends with Parker miming the lyrics “out of all these things I’ve done”, before the painting is unveiled to be of Joshua.

Reacting to the brilliant video, one person said: “I am LOVING these.”

Another added: “Joseph Parker is the 🐐 in making call out videos.”

A third replied: “Kept me entertained with the videos during the pandemic and still doing it now! 👌🤣”

A fourth responded: “Most likeable bloke in boxing 🥊👍🏻😂.”

And a fifth said: “Keep these call outs coming, they’re class 🤣🤣.”

In the six years since Parker lost to Joshua, he has also suffered defeats to Whyte and Joe Joyce.

But he is on a five-fight winning streak – his most recent two over Wilder and Zhang putting him back in the frame for a blockbuster rematch with Joshua.

Meanwhile, AJ has lost to Andy Ruiz Jr and twice to Oleksandr Usyk.

But he has won his last four fights including a spectacular second-round knockout of Francis Ngannou in March.
