Wilder: 'I believe the fight with Joshua will happen soon'

Former WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder expressed hope that his fight with another ex-division leader Anthony Joshua will take place in the near future.

“Hopefully we can get into the ring soon and give the fans what they want. I believe that our fight will take place. I believe that time is almost here,” Wilder said.

Let us remind you that Joshua and Wilder will perform at a boxing evening in Riyadh on December 23: Anthony will meet Otto Wallin in the main event, and Deontay will cross gloves with Joseph Parker. According to the latest information, in the event of victories, the Briton and the American will have two head-to-head fights in 2024.
