Joseph Parker says the best is yet to come after his first win under new trainer Andy Lee.
The Kiwi heavyweight has conceded he took his foot off the accelerator against Derek Chisora but blamed an elbow injury, sustained during the fight, for slowing him down.
Parker won a split decision in Manchester after suffering a knockdown in the first round.
It was the final fight in his deal with Matchroom Boxing and he is now eyeing an immediate re-match with Chisora, while Dillian Whyte and Andy Ruiz are the other possibilities.
