Hearn: Negotiations for Joshua-Wilder fight in Middle East continue

Dmitriy Kel Sept. 21, 2023, 5:03 a.m.

The head of the promotion company Matchroom Boxing, Eddie Hearn, said that negotiations on the long-awaited fight between the former heavyweight champions Anthony Joshua (26-3, 23 KOs) and Deontay Wilder (43-2-1 42 KO) are ongoing, but there is no talk of finalizing the deal yet.

“There is now ongoing talk about a fight between Josh and Wilder in the Middle East. We want to organize this battle. We're also in talks for Anthony to fight in December because I think if he doesn't fight Wilder in January he'll be in the ring at the end of the year.

But we'll see what happens this week. “It won’t be part of our upcoming big announcement, but I think it’s not far off,” Boxing News quotes Hearn as saying.
