The two men arrive after separate defeats to New Zealand's Joseph Parker and will need to secure victory over the other to boost their credibility, similar to Oleksandr Usyk's long-awaited unification victory over Tyson Fury earlier this year.

Once a genuine contender to be considered the best in the world, Wilder has seen his stock tumble since he drew against the Briton and then lost the subsequent two fights in their trilogy, with his reverse against Parker the third in four fights now.

Zhang appeared to be headed for the big leagues before a loss to Filip Hrgovic checked his momentum. His defeat against Parker leaves him needing a win here if he is ever to earn back a crucial world title shot down the line.

With so much at stake for both men, it's shaping up to be one of the most thrilling nights in boxing, even amid a year that has already seen no shortage of blockbuster performances and moments.

So, how can you catch it all unfold? GOAL brings you all the details you need to know about how to watch Zhilei Zhang and Deontay Wilder fight this weekend.
