The answer to the question of the best heavyweight boxer in the world is getting closer. Klitschko’s Anthony Joshua, who holds the titles of IBF, IBO and WBA, and Joseph Parker, who holds the WBO title, will meet on Saturday evening, 31. March (time not yet fixed), in Cardiff for the unification struggle. DAZN shows the mega-highlight live and exclusively in Germany and Austria, as well as non-exclusively in Switzerland.
The Brit Joshua, who could win all his 20 professional fights so far through KO – among others in November last year against Vladimir Klitschko – will meet the equally undefeated New Zealander Parker, who scored 18 KOs in 24 victories. DAZN shows the fight live and exclusively in Germany and Austria, as well as live and non-exclusive in Switzerland.
