March 31, 2018:
For the first time in his career, Anthony Joshua had to go the 12-round distance today in Cardiff, Wales, where he outpointed Joseph Parker by wide scores to unify the WBA, IBF, and WBO world heavyweight titles.
Scores were 118-110, 118-110, and 120-108. BLH scored the fight 115-113 for Joshua, seeing it much closer than the official judges did, but with Joshua deserving the victory.
Joshua (21-0, 20 KO) had stopped 20 straight opponents to start his pro career, but the streak ended due to the solid defensive work of Parker (24-1, 18 KO), who nullified much of Joshua’s usual aggression and combination punching, utilizing an awkward style, a flicking jab, and some good head movement.

I don't think, after last night, we want to talk about the refs! Last night was horrible! The whole event was horrible! That was one of the most disappointing fights on Showtime thus far in 2018! We want Wilder vs. Joshua NOW, in the UK, or wherever! We tired of watching our Champion BEGGING for Joshua! It's embarrassing! We want Wilder to do what Errol Spence Jr., and Tank Davis did last year! Go over there, and bully 'em! Leave nothing to the refs!Comment
