This might be heaven on earth for the promoter, Eddie Hearn. He can materialize another blockbuster for the fans by lining up Joshua against the winner of Povetkin vs Whyte.

However, Whyte and Povetkin cannot allow Joshua’s presence to meddle with their heads. They need to concentrate on their upcoming battle at this point. That said, things can intensify if Joshua steps in the ring post-fight.

Since Whyte is currently the interim WBC heavyweight champion, a rematch between him and Joshua is not inevitable. If Whyte defends his interim strap successfully, he will hunt for a title unification bout against the winner of Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3. If not, he can set up the rematch against Joshua.
