Eddie Hearn Reveals Anthony Joshua's Potential Next Opponents"
Matchroom Boxing's Eddie Hearn unveils three potential contenders for Anthony Joshua's next fight after his triumphant close to 2023 with a statement victory over Otto Wallin. In a resounding performance on Saudi Arabia's 'Day of Reckoning' in December, Joshua showcased a ruthless display, forcing Wallin to retire after the fifth round, despite initial concerns about Wallin's history as a tough southpaw. Originally eyeing a clash with Deontay Wilder, Joshua's plans shifted after Wilder's defeat to Joseph Parker. Hearn now points to three potential opponents for Joshua: Filip Hrgovic, Francis Ngannou, and Zhilei Zhang, highlighting the enormity of the potential matchups. Hearn emphasized their focus on vying for a face-off against the victor of the Fury versus Usyk showdown before March. He outlined the significant options in the heavyweight division, including a possible world title fight against Hrgovic and the prospect of a colossal showdown with Ngannou. Following his loss to Joshua, Wallin admitted the Brit's superiority, acknowledging Joshua's performance as tougher than his previous bout with Tyson Fury. Wallin praised Joshua's strategy and suggested the possibility of Joshua finding his groove under Ben Davison's guidance. The buzz around Joshua's potential opponents intensifies the anticipation for his next move, setting the stage for monumental clashes in the world of heavyweight boxing. #AnthonyJoshua #Boxing #EddieHearn #HeavyweightBoxing #MatchroomBoxing #SportsUpdate
