It’s fight week, and the Day of Reckoning DAZN PPV event is quickly approaching. It’s a heavyweight bonanza headlined by heavyweights Anthony Joshua (26-3, 23 KOs) taking on an extremely risky opponent in Otto Wallin (26-1, 14 KOs). The co-main will see the return of Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs) as he faces Joseph Parker (33-3, 23 KOs). If both Joshua and Wilder win their respective fights, the tentative plan is for them to face each other on March 9.
Joshua has been active and will be stepping into the ring for the third time this year, which he hasn’t done since 2016. After going 12 rounds with Jermaine Franklin in April and knocking out Robert Helenius in August, Joshua is full of confidence going into one of his most dangerous fights to date.

Wallin has been a fighter who has flown under the radar for most of his career. He gave Tyson Fury a big scare in 2019 after cutting him and pushing the WBC champion to the limit. Since then, no one with any credibility has wanted to step into the ring with him until now. Just as Joshua has done this year, this will also be Wallin’s third fight, so we will see two fighters who should be at the top of their game.
Will we see the best version of Joshua as he beats Wallin, or will the Swedish heavyweight pull an upset and ruin any plans for a Joshua-Wilder fight?
