Anthony Joshua V Deontay Wilder postponed until 2021

Anthony Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn has revealed that Joshua and Deontay Wilder may not meet until 2021. Joshua takes on Andy Ruiz JR in his next fight in New York on June 1. He was scheduled to fight Jarrell Miller at Madison Square Garden but the American failed a drug test. Joshua bids to claim the WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles. Wilder will defend his world title against Dominic Breazeale on May 18 at the Barclays Center in New York. Hearn told IFL TV: “I know that [Luis] Ortiz has already been promised the Wilder fight, I know that [Adam] Kownacki has already been promised the Wilder fight. So we’re not just talking about 2020, we might be talking about 2021 when Wilder’s available. “It’s bulls*** for the sport of boxing it really is and it’s annoying because certain people without the brain capacity presume that Joshua doesn’t want to fight Wilder - you couldn't be more wrong.”
