Earlier there was a rumor that Joshua could fight the British veteran Derek Chisora, but today an American Gerald Washington said that he had received an offer to share the ring with the former champion.
“We are going to do a good job. We are waiting. Let's see what happens. I'm still fighting Chisora, but they need someone to save the show. If they need us, then we are here.
I am very happy to fight Chisora, but the option with "AJ" is more attractive. They've already contacted me, so we'll see," ES News quoted Washington as saying.
