The former two-time heavyweight champion of the world and Olympic gold medalist, Anthony Joshua has confirmed the opponent for his next fight. Taking place in the O2 Arena on August 12th, AJ will clash with a familiar foe in Dillian Whyte.
This will be a rematch of their 2015 headliner in the same arena which was for the vacant British heavyweight title. On that occasion, Joshua had his hand raised by seventh-round knockout, but it was the first time we saw vulnerabilities in Eddie Hearn‘s biggest asset.
Whyte was able to hurt Joshua and put him on wobbly legs, however, he survived and got the better of his bitter rival.
