Wilder's last fight came in October 2022 as he knocked out Robert Helenius.
He did feel awful after the brutal KO as he was concerned for the health of the Finnish boxer.
But the result did serve as a reminder of what a dangerous fighter the American is as he had previously suffered back-to-back defeats to Tyson Fury.
Wilder, 38, has hinted that he could earn an eyewatering £40million should he beat Parker.

🥊ANTHONY JOSHUA VS OTTO WALLIN: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF THRILLING SAUDI CLASH🥊
Who are the trainers?
Parker is being trained by Irishman Andy Lee and he believes that the bout with Wilder will be his biggest in five years.
Lee has claimed that Parker needs to avoid the right-hand of Wilder and that he can "outbox" the American.
Malik Scott is training Wilder for the fight and has urged for protection from the referee.
The trainer has suggested that the older fighters could be in danger if the fight goes on for longer "than they should".
SunSport prediction
Wilder is a very dangerous boxer and his right-hand is one of the most powerful in the sport.
Parker does boast plenty of boxing skills himself and could cause the American plenty of problems.
Wilder however has the slight edge and if he can land one of his devasting right-hand punches then he could claim victory.
What has been said?
Wilder said he is looking forward to sending Parker to "la-la land".
The American said: "I’m looking forward to letting him do the little hula-hoop dance after I punch him.
"I wanna knock him out of the ring. I’ve never knocked a man out of the ring.
"I wanna knock him out of the ring, but I don’t want nobody to hold him when he falls out.
"I want him to fall straight on the floor, on the ground, with his arm folded out, looking up into the sky, in la-la land, as if he’s on mushrooms."
Parker added: "Listen, I don’t care what anyone says - I know what I can do, and I know what I am going to do.
"Everyone has an opinion, and they can keep it.
"They can say what they want to say, but it doesn’t affect us. It doesn’t affect any of my team.
"A good victory over Deontay Wilder will be another good win.
"I’ve had some good wins in my career and a few losses, and a win over Wilder will be another good win that will create more opportunities for me and my team next year.
"It will be big time and we’ll be celebrating on the way home – big time."
