Parker beats Zhang by majority decision
Joseph Parker speaking to DAZN after beating Zhilei Zhang by majority decision: "Thank you to my team. This is a great win. I feel like we're on the up now. Zhang is a tough man, he knocked me down twice. I'm very happy and go home and celebrate.
"Hard work, hard work. After the defeat to Joe Joyce and the win over Jack Massey, I still wasn't happy with my performance. Now, look where we are.
"We are contracted to have a rematch so we will do it again."

Parker beats Zhang by majority decision
That is some result for Joseph Parker.
He was knocked down on two occasions in that fight but still gets the win.
Parker takes the WBO interim heavyweight title and is joined in the ring by his entourage, including WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
The Kiwi makes it five wins on the bounce, having beaten Deontay Wilder last time out, and he moves to an overall record of 35 wins and three defeats.
Asked what is next, Parker says "a rematch with Zhang. We've got a contract".

Zhang v Parker
Zhang is being paraded around the ring with his arm raised. His corner think he has done enough with those two knockdowns, he did little else.
Zhang and Parker have both had time to get their gloves off and they are having a chat as we wait for the judges' scorecards.
We had a long wait for the scorecards in the previous fight between Rey Vargas and Nick Ball and that ended in a split decision draw...
Round twelvepublished at 23:56 Greenwich Mean Time 8 March
Zhang v Parker
No sign of fireworks in the final round.
It's slow and ponderous, that's been a theme throughout.
Barely a punch thrown as the bell rings and that's it.
Over to the judges once again.

Boxing expert on BBC Radio 5 LiveI absolutely think Parker is doing enough but I think it's going to be close with the knockdowns.

Very flat crowd but to be fair, it's nearly 3am in Saudi!

Heavyweight on BBC Radio 5 LiveParker needs to get off the stool and let them go but he won't do that because he's a nice boy.

BBC Sport at Kingdom Arena, RiyadhTo answer David in Cardiff's question - it's far from a lively crowd. Every so often a select group will start chanting a fighters' name but the shouting is short lived.
You know it's pretty flat when you can hear the TV commentary who are sat about a couple of metres from me.
I've seen the odd travelling Briton here and there but it's on the most made up of locals.
Although, there are significantly more people in here than when Joshua fought Otto Wallin in the Day of Reckoning card in December.
Round tenpublished at 23:48 Greenwich Mean Time 8 March
Zhang v Parker
Parker is throwing plenty in this round but Zhang is happy to stand in front of the Kiwi and soak up those shots on his gloves.
Zhang is inches away with a looping right.
Parker has two rounds left to try and salvage something.

Round ninepublished at 23:44 Greenwich Mean Time 8 March
Zhang v Parker
Parker doesn't seem to been wearing that knockdown too much as he lands a sharp one-two.
He keeps ducking down and Zhang is throwing uppercuts to try and catch him on his way back up.
Deep into this fight and Parker is going to have to find a way to stop Zhang if he wants the win.

Is it me or is this the flattest crowd in boxing history?

Zhang v Parker
Similar to round three when Parker was knocked down, he was up pretty quickly after the knockdown.
It was a straight left followed by a right hook that did the business.
