Kiwi fighter Joseph Parker has stunned the boxing world after defusing and defeating Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

In a fight that the judges scored 118-111, 118-110 and 120-108 former heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz says that no one expected that to go Parker’s way.

Throughout the fight Parker was peppering Wilder with jabs, body shots.

In round 9 Parker got in overhand shot to the head that rocked Wilder and he was luckily saved by the bell.

Fans are now calling for Anthony Joshua to face Joseph Parker next year but first Joshua has to get through Otto Wallin.
