Anthony Joshua has recently confirmed that he will be fighting with Deontay Wilder on the undercard of Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk. Let's look at all the details!
Anthony Joshua has hinted at a double bill next year with Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk and his own bout against Deontay Wilder. Both Wilder and Joshua have long been tied to a potential heavyweight title clash.
As per Joshua, "They want to put Usyk-Fury, Joshua-Wilder on the same night. That might not happen until April."
Joshua lost his three belts to Usyk and failed to win them back in a rematch but has recently secured victories in his last two fights, marking a comeback.
Although Joshua had initially hoped for a showdown with Wilder before the end of the current year, he has now suggested that this bout might not materialize until 2024.
Wilder lost his WBC heavyweight title to Fury, setting the stage for a chance to determine the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the era of four major belts, as Fury and Usyk hold them all.
