Will Joshua meet Wallin?

Promoter Otto Wallina (24-1, 14 KOs) Dimitri Salita announced that he was in talks with Eddie Hearn about a possible return to the ring in the spring of his ward Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs).

“Eddie and I had a serious conversation last week about Otto, and as far as I understand, now everything depends on AJ,” said Salita. “I know that Anthony wants to be top heavyweight again.”

“Both Otto and AJ want to fight Fury. In terms of punch statistics, no one has landed as many strikes on Fury as Otto. In my opinion, the winner of this fight would have the right to challenge Fury after the fight with Usyk, ”said Wallina’s promoter.

Anthony Joshua, who lost to Oleksandr Usyk in August in a rematch for the WBA, WBO and IBF belts, should return to duty at the turn of March and April.
