Months of negotiations and trash talk are over with confirmation that Kiwi world heavyweight boxing champion Joseph Parker will put his titles on the line in a massive unification bout against Englishman Anthony Joshua on March 31.
WBO champion Parker, who is in London, said he was relieved contract talks were over, and that he could now fully concentrate on the job at hand.
Parker says that Anthony Joshua is in for a huge shock.
While the pair are both undefeated, Joshua will go into the fight the favourite, having knocked out Wladimir Klitschko last April in what was widely regarded as the best contest in recent years.
Parker has fought just once in the UK, beating Hughie Fury but failing to impress the critics when he won on points at Manchester Arena in September.
Joshua currently holds the IBF, WBA Super and IBO belts.
