BOXING fans are buzzing for fright night after seeing the zombie-themed promotional video for Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder’s upcoming fights.
The video hit social media and included an apocalyptic theme as it introduced the boxers on the fight card.
The promo, titled Day of Reckoning, features the likes of Joseph Parker, Wallin, Filip Hrgovic, Dmitry Bivol, Deontay Wilder and AJ.
Wilder features as a zombie driving a van while he is joined by promoter Frank Warren in the passenger seat.
AJ shows up as an undead monster signing a poster while his promoter Eddie Hearn smokes a cigar and ashes it on a dismembered head.
The British boxer has another scene where he thuds his way down a set of stairs before sending a zombie’s head flying with a punch.
Meanwhile, Wilder and Warren continue to zoom around a post-apocalyptic world in their van.
Warren shared the video on his Twitter page and wrote: “Probably the best promo I’ve ever been part of.
“The day of reckoning is coming.”
And fans were thrilled with the video as they flocked to social media to comment.
