Eddie Hearn stated that the opponent Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) will be determined by the time the former WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion wants to return to the ring.
If AJ decides to wait until May, his duel with Dillian Whyte (28-3, 19 KOs) is possible. And if the Briton wants to box in February or March, he will get a slightly weaker opponent.
Joshua last fought in August, losing on points to Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs).
