Joseph Parker wants Dillian Whyte back ... in the ring.

In a post on 'X' which has more than one million views, Parker called out Whyte in creative fashion, lip-syncing Take That's 'Back for Good'.

Accompanying the post were the words, "I want you back for good Dillian Whyte, If not, I'm moving on."

The video shows highlights of their brutal prior bout, as Parker passionately sings along to the mid-90's hit.

The pair previously met in 2018, Whyte prevailing by unanimous decision in London.

Parker has since enjoyed a career resurgence, and is riding a five fight win streak, most recently outlasting Chinese powerhouse Zhilei Zhang in Saudi Arabia on 8 March.

Since his TKO loss to Tyson Fury in 2022, Whyte has won two on the bounce, the latest coming last month as he forced Christian Hammer to retire after three rounds.
