The future plans of former heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua are becoming clearer. His renowned promoter, Eddie Hearn, disclosed this information to the media.
According to Hearn, if Turki Al al-Sheikh, the figure behind Saudi Arabia's sports projects, is able to fully implement his plans and strategic ideas, Anthony Joshua will have his next fight in February of next year. Following this bout, boxing fans may see the long-anticipated major clash—a fight against Tyson Fury.
The promoter stated that negotiations in this direction have already begun and the process has gained serious momentum. Eddie Hearn praised Turki Al al-Sheikh as a reliable organizer, emphasizing that he has never gone back on his word during major sporting events. This raises further hope for the realization of the planned fights.
It is worth noting that Anthony Joshua’s last fight garnered significant interest. He stepped into the ring against Jake Paul, who is known both as a blogger and a professional boxer, and ended the bout with a knockout in the sixth round. This victory demonstrated Joshua’s return to form and his readiness for major bouts.
If plans materialize, the February fight and the potential subsequent clash with Fury could become some of the biggest events in the heavyweight division. Boxing enthusiasts are already eagerly anticipating the realization of this scenario.
