Zhilei Zhang vs. Deontay Wilder: The Big Fight Preview

Zhilei Zhang vs. Deontay Wilder: The Big Fight PreviewMark Robinson/Matchroom Boxing
A huge heavyweight fight takes place in Riyadh tonight.

Two heavyweights meet in Riyadh in a fight which could have major implications. 

Team Queensberry's Zhiliei Zhang will be facing the captain of Team Matchroom Deontay Wilder on the Queensberry vs. Matchroom 5v5 card and it is a contest fans will not want to miss. 

Zhang and Wilder are both coming off recent losses to former WBO champion Joseph Parker, and now they look to revive their careers and return to the heavyweight division's top table with a victory. 

Both fighters are known for their immense punching power so it is very unlikely this bout will go the full 12 round distance, but will it be "Big Bang" or the "Bronze Bomber" who will walk away with a new lease of life tonight live on DAZN

Here is the best of DAZN's coverage so far.
