The pair will face off as part of the undercard for Anthony Joshua v Otto Wallin, though many will see this one as the fight of the night between two fearsome contenders.

Heavyweight titan Wilder was defeated twice by Tyson Fury in 2020 and 2021 – his only defeats in 46 professional fights – but retains one of the hardest punches in boxing.

He defeated Robert Helenius in October 2022 and hasn't fought since, so this is a huge occasion to announce himself back on the world stage in the heavyweight division.

Parker boasts 33 wins from 36, and has never been stopped by a non-British competitor. Anthony Joshua, Dillian Whyte and Joe Joyce are the only fighters to stop him.

RadioTimes.com rounds up everything you need to know about the timings for the Deontay Wilder v Joseph Parker fight.
