Deontay Wilder vs. Joseph Parker: Anthony Joshua makes prediction for heavyweight clash

The "Day of Reckoning" event set to take place on December 23 live on DAZN PPV features a number of stellar names. 

Two of those being former world heavyweight champions Deontay Wilder and Joseph Parker who meet in the co-main event. 

This will be Wilder's first fight in over a year, but already he is being linked with a clash against Anthony Joshua at some point in 2024, but first he must beat Parker if this is to materialise. 

Joshua also has a contest of his own to focus on when he goes head-to-head with Otto Wallin which is part of the same bill, but that has not stopped the British star from making a prediction for Wilder vs. Parker and he believes it will be closer fight than many expect it to be. 

"50-50 match up," Joshua told DAZN when previewing Wilder vs. Parker. 

"When I assess the styles that’s why I make it 50-50.

"Remember, Joseph Parker is a former champion, so is Deontay Wilder, so credit to both of them for stepping up to the plate and may the best man win.”
