    Joseph Parker's potential clash with Deontay Wilder could be make or break for his world title aspirations

    Joseph Parker's potential clash with Deontay Wilder could be make or break for his world title aspirations


    The two heavyweight boxers will reportedly face each other in Saudi Arabia next month...just 56 days after Parker's last bout.

    Boxing promoter Dean Lonergan says it's a risky fight for Parker, going up against one of the biggest hitters of all-time.
