Anthony Joshua will likely return to the ring on September 21 at Wembley Stadium, but his opponent is to be decided says Eddie Hearn.
Daniel Dubois was believed to be the frontrunner for an all British heavyweight showdown in the capital after his impressive performance in defeating Filip Hrgovic but Joshua’s promoter, Eddie Hearn has revealed there are TWO other possibilities.
Speaking to IFLTV he said: “Firstly, there is nothing agreed or confirmed for AJ in September.”
“His Excellency (Turki Alalshikh) would like AJ to headline at Wembley.
“Obviously it would be incredible for us, for Riyadh Season and for British boxing.
“Who the opponent will be is undecided. You’ve got Zhilei Zhang which is a great fight.
“You’ve got Daniel Dubois, now the IBF interim heavyweight champion and you’ve got Joseph Parker who is on a great run.”
