The clamour to see Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder in the same ring continues to grow.

You get the impression it is a fight that is destined to happen.

However, as we?ve learned before, boxing can be an unpredictable sport one punch can change everything, plus there?s also the problem of boxing politics often interfering.

But, Eddie Hearn, talking to the media, is of the opinion that it is a fight that must happen sooner rather than later.

Talking to the media, Hearn has spoken about any game plan either boxer may have going out of the window, remarking,

?I think Wilder against AJ. I think the game plan is going out the window.

?It?s going to be a barn burner. Our job is to provide for the fans. Our job is to give the people what they want. Anthony wants to give the fans what they want. He wants to fight Wilder now, straightaway, and there?s a very strong chance it?ll be next after Parker.?


Continuing, Hearn added that to build the fight up even further, the two could fight on the same bill ahead of the ultimate showdown with Hearn further adding,

?On an ideal perspective, maybe they?ll box on the same night in New York before that fights made.

?It?ll make it even bigger. Also, Deontay Wilder almost lost on Saturday. AJ might lose on March 31st. Let?s not lose the opportunity to make the biggest fight in world boxing. So I think there?s a very good chance it can happen next, but again, we?ll see on March 31st. The priority is Deontay Wilder. Anthony Joshua wants all the belts. He wants to be the unified champion. He wants to beat Deontay Wilder.?


The prospect is mouth-watering is it not!
