Puma Shoes Wholesale China . 1 at the Vodafone Events Centre in Manukau, New Zealand, promoter Duco Events announced at a news conference Monday.The announcement of Parkers bout, which is in his hometown, comes just four days after he also risked his mandatory status in a fourth-round knockout victory against Solomon Haumono in Christchurch, New Zealand.The 6-foot-4, 234-pound Parker (20-0, 17 KOs), 24, will be the smaller man against the 6-7, 254-pound Dimitrenko (38-2, 24 KOs).It doesnt faze me fighting big men, Parker said. I know if I put in the training, I know I can beat anyone in the world. ... I think its important to go to the body and break him down.Trainer Kevin Barry wants Parker to fight taller opponents in preparation for the eventual fight with Joshua, who is 6-6.We need to put Joe up against some big men, Barry said. There are big guys at the top of the heavyweight division. When you look at [world champion] Tyson Fury, when you look at [former champion Wladimir] Klitschko, when you look at Joshua, these guys are all tall. These are the guys we are targeting. These are the guys who hold the titles. These are the guys that dictate all of the big purses in world heavyweight boxing. So we need to go after them.Dimitrenko, 34, of Russia, is the former European heavyweight champion and has won six fights in a row since suffering an 11th-round knockout loss to contender Kubrat Pulev in a European title fight in May 2012.Dimitrenko is a guy who former world champion Shannon Briggs went out of his way to avoid earlier this year because of the risk, Duco Events promoter Dean Lonergan said. Even casual boxing fans know that all Eastern Europeans in the heavyweight division know how to fight.Dimitrenko pulled out of a fight against interim world titleholder Luis Ortiz scheduled for March 5 on HBO in Washington, D.C., because he was unhappy with the purse.With Joshua (17-0, 17 KOs), 26, of England, free to make an optional defense until Nov. 8 and the mandatory fight not due until Jan. 9, 2017, Parker is looking to stay sharp against Dimitrenko with the title fight looming.Barry said it is possible that if Parker beats Dimitrenko he will fight yet again before the end of the year.Well focus on this fight, and after this fight theres every indication that, everything going well, that we will fight another tall guy later in the year, Barry said.Parker said the eventual world title fight is on his mind but that he will be prepared for Dimitrenko.Even though theres something in the back of my head in Joshua, you still have to stay focused on whats in front of you, Parker said. If you lose focus, thats the fight you dont get to. I want to stay focused even though were thinking about Joshua. This is another challenge. Puma Shoes Clearance Sale .

Buchholz pitched five-hit ball over seven innings to improve to 7-0, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Chicago White Sox 6-2 Wednesday night to avoid a three-game sweep.

He also matched the best start by a Boston pitcher since Josh Beckett in 2007 and joined Tampa Bays Matt Moore and Arizonas Patrick Corbin as the only unbeaten pitchers in the majors with seven or more wins. "I thought tonight, still, he had very good stuff," manager John Farrell said. "Hes still pitching in the low to mid-90s with his fastball.

The only run Buchholz aallowed came on an RBI groundout in the third by Alex Rios, who extended his career-high hitting streak to 17 with a single in the sixth. Cheap Puma Shoes China.
