According to Hearn, this could happen if both boxers emerge victorious from their upcoming confrontations: Joshua will fight Otto Wallin in the main event of the boxing evening in Riyadh on December 23, and Wilder will cross gloves with Joseph Parker at the same event.
“The Saudis have made it clear they want Joshua to fight Wilder, as does the rest of the world. I believe we will eventually get this fight done, but both guys have to win first. So if Joshua and Wilder can get victories, then I believe that we will see this fight in the spring,” Boxing Scene quotes Hearn.
