Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua is set to meet Deontay Wilder in potentially the biggest final eliminator for Tyson Fury’s WBC title in 2024.
Joshua and Wilder will compete in separate bouts on December 23 against Otto Wallin and Joseph Parker respectively.
A victory for both Wilder and Joshua will put them on course to box each other next year. But even though they are the No 1 and No 2-ranked contenders with the WBC they won’t fight each other for that heavyweight championship.
According to Sky Sports, the WBC has confirmed that their heavyweight championship will not only be contested, along with the IBF, WBA and WBO belts, in the Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk undisputed title fight on February 17 but also in a rematch.
