Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder will appear on the same bill for the first time on December 23 as they look to build huge interest in a potential clash next year.
The longtime rivals have been on a collision course for the best part of a decade, but who will close the show next month as both fighters possess huge profiles.
Joshua will face Sweden’s Otto Wallin on the card, and he’ll be fully aware of the threat possessed by Wallin due to his stellar effort against Tyson Fury in 2019.
Wilder takes on former world, champion, Joseph Parker, and if victorious, it clears the way for a major showdown in 2024 between Joshua and Wilder.
“I have got to say Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua is the big name, he is the big news, he is the former two-time world champion, and he is rebuilding, people are interested in what he has got to do,” said Froch on his YouTube channel.
“Deontay Wilder, obviously he lost to Tyson Fury twice and gave him a draw in one of their meetings. Although he is a big name, he is in against Parker and all eyes are going to be on AJ-Wallin.
“I’d say Anthony Joshua-Otto Wallin will be the bill topper, that will be the last fight of the night.”
