Eddie Hearn is backing Anthony Joshua to become undisputed heavyweight champion as his man gets ready to face Francis Ngannou.
A bout for the heavy-handed pair has reportedly been agreed and with the fight scheduled for March, Joshua will go into the contest knowing who the division's number one fighter will be.
Just a few weeks before Joshua faces off with the former UFC superstar, Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will meet with all four heavyweight titles up for grabs.
Joshua will be eager to test himself against the victor and Hearn has full confidence that the former two-time world champion will one day be the best fighter in his weight class.
“I truly believe Anthony Joshua will become undisputed heavyweight champion,” said Hearn when speaking on The MMA Hour
“Off the back of AJ vs Otto Wallin and Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou - you’re telling me you don’t fancy AJ against Fury?”
