Matchroom Teases Anthony Joshua Vs Wilder Long-Awaited Clash
A potential Anthony Joshua vs. Deontay Wilder fight, initially anticipated years ago, is back on the table, according to Matchroom CEO Frank Smith. The fight hinges on Wilder's success in his upcoming June 27th bout against Tyrrell Herndon. Joshua, recovering from elbow surgery, aims to return between September and November. While other opponents were considered, Smith emphasizes the "narrative" and commercial appeal of Joshua vs. Wilder, suggesting it's the most significant decision in Joshua's career. Talks are ongoing with Saudi Arabian officials for a potential two-fight deal. Matchroom is prioritizing Joshua's full recovery and training before making any official announcements.
