The Day of Reckoning

The main event of the night will see Anthony Joshua take on Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin.

Heading into the fight, Joshua's professional records stands tall with 26 wins and only three defeats, claiming 23 knockout victories, five of which have come in the first round.

His opponent may even be more polished than the 34-year-old British, with Wallin holding a professional record of 26-1, with 14 of those 26 wins coming by way of knockout.

Wallin's sole loss came against Tyson Fury, who is often referred to as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time.

Day of Reckonings undercard will see Joseph Parker matched up against  Deontay Wilder, a fight which on any other fight card would be the main event, these two men a sure to get the crowd pumped for Joshua v Wallin.

The Kiwi Parker is trained  by Irish boxing legend Andy Lee and was in attendance at the 3Arena when Katie Taylor defeated Chantelle Cameron last month.

Wilder's professional record is 43-3, 42 wins by KO, whilst Parker's record is 33-3, with 23 of his wins coming by KO.

We spoke to Donegal boxer Jason Quigley about the two fights.

"I think we can call it the two semi-finals," he said. Here are his predictions for the two big fights.

 

Jason Quigley on Wilder v Parker fight at the Day of Reckoning

I think that Joseph Parker can get in there and get the victory 100%. Wilder has fought once in the last year and two months and that was a first-round knockout.

Before that, it was another year. So I think Wilder's inactivity and his lifestyle outside of boxing is to play a massive part in this.

I think that Joseph's activity the way he's been staying, committed to the sport and his training camp over here in Ireland, you know, doing everything right.

I think that Joseph Parker is going to creep up on Wilder and get the victory.

 

Jason Quigley on Joshua v Wallin fight at the Day of Reckoning

I do think that Anthony Joshua is not at his best right now.

I believe that Otto Wallen is going to cause trouble for Anthony Joshua on the night. I think he's going to make it a little bit difficult, it's not going to be a pretty performance.

But I think that Anthony Joshua is going to pull through that fight. I think he's got the capability even if he doesn't show up 100% on the night.

I think that he can still scrape a victory on fight night and that sets up a lovely rematch in the final between Anthony Josh and Joseph Parker.
