A full day of title fights featuring Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin and Deontay Wilder vs. Joseph Parker will take place Saturday at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (11 a.m. ET on ESPN+ pay-per-view).
Joshua (26-3, 23 KOs), a former heavyweight champion, is fighting for the third time this year. He has won two straight — over Jermaine Franklin and Robert Helenius — after back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk.
Wallin (26-1, 14 KO) gave Tyson Fury a tough fight in 2019, but lost a unanimous decision, the only loss of his career. He has since won six straight fights, including an impressive decision victory over Murat Gassiev in September.
In the co-main event, Parker pulled off a shocking upset victory over Wilder. Parker, who like Wilder is a former heavyweight champion, won by unanimous decision.
With the victory Parker (34-3, 23 KOs), the former WBO title holder, has now won four consecutive fights. Wilder (43-3-1, 42 KOs), the former WBC titleholder, was fighting for the first time since October 2022.
Also on the card, Dmitri Bivol successfully defended his WBA light heavyweight title against Lyndon Arthur with a unanimous decision victory and Daniel DuBois defeated Jarell Miller via 10th round TKO to get back in the win column.
