New Zealand’s heavyweight boxer Joseph Parker defeated American Deontay Wilder via unanimous decision in a heavyweight bout during the “The Day of Reckoning” in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, earlier today.

Wilder, who entered the fight with 42 of his 43 wins coming via knockout, waited for his opportunity to add another KO to his ledger, but couldn’t find an opening, and Parker took advantage.

In arguably the biggest win of Parker’s career, the Kiwi boxer dominated Wilder throughout the bout to take the win 118-111, 118-110, and 120-108.

Wilder, who entered the fight with 42 of his 43 wins coming via knockout, waited for his opportunity to add another KO to his ledger, but couldn’t find an opening, and Parker took advantage.

After the match, Parker said he had trained very hard for this moment, paying tribute to the Tyson Fury camp, who got him prepared for the fight.
