Anthony Joshua WILL struggle on. There is no such thing as a doubt. Although some followers, together with some consultants, said after AJ’s nasty knockout defeat by the hands of Daniel Dubois that the 34-year-old ought to critically take into consideration calling it a profession, Eddie Hearn, talking with IFL TV, stated that Joshua is already “in rehab” and is telling him he “can’t wait” to get again in there.

All that continues to be to be confirmed now could be who Joshua will struggle when he does struggle once more and when and the place. Hearn broke it down as follows:
“If Fury was to lose [the rematch with Usyk], perhaps they (AJ and Fury) each say, ‘Proper, let’s give the general public one final hurrah, two massive fights, finished,” Hearn stated. “Or, if Fury wins, he may defend in opposition to AJ for the unified world heavyweight title, and AJ may beat him and turn into a three-time heavyweight champion. Something’s attainable. We may rematch Daniel Dubois, or [AJ] may struggle another person. Deontay Wilder. I dunno….it’s not one thing that’s been mentioned but, however two guys coming off defeats, massive punchers, somebody’s received to go from the game. However for me, the choices are rematch Daniel Dubois or wait and see what occurs in Fury in opposition to Usyk.”
We don’t know for positive if Wilder will ever field once more, though his coach, Malik Scott, suggests this might nicely be the case. AJ going again in with Dubois looks as if a nasty thought to many, with the shape e-book suggesting Dubois repeats his crushing KO win in a sequel. However Hearn stated to IFL that he’s positive Joshua can beat Dubois if he bins higher and doesn’t make the errors he made within the struggle at Wembley.
As for Fury eager to struggle Joshua, whether or not he has overwhelmed Usyk or has misplaced to him a second time, is there any actual probability Fury will even need the struggle? As Hearn stated, something’s attainable, however this a lot is for certain: Joshua can be at actual danger of being overwhelmed for a fifth time if he did struggle both Dubois, Wilder, or Fury upon his return to the ring. A return that basically does appear, for higher or for worse, dead-set to occur.
