Joseph Parker strikes yet again.

After his hilarious call out of Oleksandr Usyk back in March by way of of country music star Shania Twain's hit song 'Still The One', Parker has just dropped his latest masterpiece.

Posted to X in the early hours on Aug. 5, Parker channels A-ha's 1985 smash hit 'Take On Me'. In the video, Parker and his team are seen lip singing the song through various shots as footage of him and Usyk are spliced in.

"Come on @usykaa Take On Me," the tweet said.

Many boxing fans have now reacted to the viral post.

@Chivaz1983: "This is gold man.
I believe you have a good chance against Usyk."

@gullane12or3: "Brilliant , you have earned it."

@AngrySeagull2: "brilliant call out. This is the fight we want to see has earned his shot."

While the WBO has announced Parker as the next mandatory challenger for Usyk, the camps have not engaged in any negotiations. What's next for Usyk and Parker remains to be seen.

Earlier this week, Usyk's former manager made a shocking prediction saying Usyk has fought his last fight and is retiring. "I don’t see him fighting anymore, at least in boxing. He has proved it all, there’s nothing more to gain."
