Joshua's hospitalization was the result of a tragic car accident on Monday, in which two close friends of the boxer, Latif Ayodele and Sina Gami, died. The news of the tragedy shocked the boxing community and fans of the former world champion.
It is currently unclear how these dramatic events will affect Joshua's future sporting plans. The fight in Riyadh, scheduled for mid-February, will certainly not take place. A fight with Tyson Fury was preliminarily scheduled for September.
