Hearn Predicts Similar Outcomes in Wilder and Joshua Fights
British promoter Eddie Hearn has offered predictions for the upcoming bouts featuring Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua:
"Parker is in good shape. You've seen how he was defeated when he might not have been as well-prepared as he is now. But Deontay hasn't stepped into the ring for a long time; in the last two years, he had only one fight against Robert Helenius, which lasted only one round. Joshua will be facing a tough southpaw, who will be very confident after defeating Gassiev. Anthony will have a tougher fight. But if Wilder is not in form, and Parker can bring his A-game, he also has excellent chances. I think next week Joshua and Wilder will win by knockout," stated Hearn.
Both clashes are scheduled for December 23 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
