Former world champion Parker tested positive in a anti-doping examination conducted the very day he fought in 11th-round defeat against English fighter Fabio Wardley.
The British boxer and the New Zealander participated in an intense bout staged in the UK capital in late October to establish the next next in line for the WBO to undisputed world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.
Parker had been the leading contender to meet Oleksandr Usyk following compiling a notable six-fight winning streak, yet put his contender position at stake in London and endured a stoppage in round eleven.
A standard screening given to the boxer via the anti-doping organization the day he fought showed an adverse result and now leaves the 36-year-old with a battle to clear his name.
His promotion team released an announcement stating: "The anti-doping body informed all relevant parties that Joseph Parker had a positive result subsequent to a doping test conducted on the 25th October. As the investigation continues, no more comments are forthcoming at this time."
Joseph Parker became heavyweight champion in 2016 until he was defeated for his WBO belt by unanimous decision against Anthony Joshua in Wales in 2018.
Joseph Parker became a regular competitor across the United Kingdom from that point, fighting eight times in total in Britain and moving to Ireland for preparation alongside respected coach former champion Lee in recent years.
Coached by Andy Lee, the boxer overcame the 2022 setback against Joe Joyce to secure a string of victories that placed him as the top contender to challenge the champion until he lost to Wardley.
Subsequent to Parker's sample showed a failed test during the Wardley bout, allegedly for cocaine, an inquiry about the test outcome has been started.
