WBC heavy weight champion Deontay Wilder has revealed on Sportsweek he would like to fight Anthony Joshua in the future, but wants to challenge Joseph Parker first in order to claim the WBO title. Then he is ready for a big unification fight against Joshua, who now holds the IBF and WBA title after his epic win against Wladimir Klitschko. Wilder declared it could be a match where everything is at stake, which would determine who is 鈥渢he best man on the planet鈥. Fight promoter Eddie Hearn admitted the contest could happen, although he also suggested other possible fights between Joshua and Parker and Joshua and Tyson Fury. 鈥淭hese are the fights we have to put together,鈥 said Hearn in order to create a legacy for Joshua. This was first broadcast on Sportsweek Sunday 30 April 2017
