A clash between the two former world champions could still be great despite recent setbacks, argued the stars of The DAZN Boxing Show.

Despite both suffering career-damaging losses over the last few weeks, a considerable percentage of fight fans are still hungry for Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua to go head-to-head in the near future.

On the latest episode of The DAZN Boxing Show, Ak and Barak discussed whether they would want to see the two former world heavyweight champions face each other.

"Who would not want to see Joshua versus Wilder," Ak said.

"I think that stylistically this fight would be action-packed and could end in a knockout. I would love to see that fight."

Barak meanwhile believes the global reach of both Joshua and Wilder will make this fight an appealing contest with or without world title belts.

"It's really a popularity contest."

"You're talking about the most popular American heavyweight, Wilder. The most popular European heavyweight is Joshua. That's who the people want to see regardless of win or loss."
