Anthony Joshua is keeping fans in suspense regarding his boxing comeback, with the decision expected just 48 hours before the fight. Since his defeat by Daniel Dubois at Wembley in September last year, Joshua has been eyeing a warm-up match before potentially facing Tyson Fury in a high-profile bout next year. There are talks of Joshua possibly joining an undercard event before Christmas on short notice.

Eddie Hearn, Joshua’s promoter, mentioned that a final call on his next fight will be made this week. Hearn hinted that the fight announcement might be sudden, with no prior promotion, emphasizing a more relaxed approach. Hearn expressed interest in Joshua having a low-key fight without the typical hype and commercialization, aiming for a simple weigh-in and fight setup.

Regarding a potential clash with Jake Paul, Hearn indicated that while discussions have taken place, no formal offer has been made. Hearn dismissed the idea of Joshua being one of Paul’s potential opponents, suggesting that a fight against Paul would not currently be pursued due to differing priorities.

In other boxing news, the rematch between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn is scheduled for November 15 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Fans can watch the fight on DAZN PPV for £24.99 or access it for free with a DAZN Ultimate subscription.

Joshua is in the process of assembling a new coaching team after parting ways with trainer Ben Davison. Recently, Joshua visited Oleksandr Usyk’s training camp in Spain as he gears up for the next phase of his boxing career. Notably, Joshua has trained under various coaches in the past, including Tony Sims, Rob McCracken, Robert Garcia, and Derrick James, before transitioning to Fury’s former training camp.
