IT promises to be one of the biggest nights in boxing the UK has ever seen.
The highly anticipated bout will see Joshua defending his IBO, IBF and WBA belts against the New Zealander, who holds the WBO title.
The fight will be staged at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium in front of 78,000 excited fight fans – but if you weren’t lucky enough to get tickets for the bout then how can you make sure you don’t miss any of the action?
Sky TV customers
The fight is live and exclusive on Sky Box Office, which is on channel 491 for standard definition and 492 for high definition.
The fight costs £19.95 for UK viewers and 24.95 Euros for fight fans in the Republic of Ireland.
If you book the fight over the phone on Saturday you’ll pay an extra fiver – so it’ll set you back £24.95/29.95 Euros.
Of course, if you’ve got mates coming over, you can always split the cost to make it even cheaper.
If you’re a sky customer you can book the fight online by visiting the box office website – you’ll need your email or Sky username and password – or by booking it through your Sky box.
To order over the phone, call 03442 410888 or 0818 220 225 from the Republic of Ireland.
Now TV
NOW TV gives viewers the chance to watch Sky channels without having to pay for a full-blown subscription – and you don’t even need to buy a Sky Sports pass to get a ringside seat.
All you need to do is buy the fight through the streaming box office site – go via the NOW TV website to get there – for the same price of £19.95.
Then download the Sky Sports Box Office app from the NOW TV app store.
Log-in using your Box Office account details and you’ll then be able to stream the fight from your box.
Other streaming services
If you don’t have NOW TV, you can still stream the fight online to your tablet, phone, laptop, PC or Mac.
Again, buy the fight on via the box office website – you’ll have to create an account and pay – and select which device you want to use to watch the fight on.
Check the box office website to make sure your device will be able to stream it.
Go to the pub
If you don’t fancy forking-out the £19.95, then there’s always the pub!
Yes, many pubs and bars will be throwing their doors open for the fight so you won’t have to pay for it yourself.
Though with Joshua and Parker not expected to enter the ring until around 10pm, we reckon you’ll probably spend over the fight’s price on a few rounds…
