Eddie Hearn, head of Matchroom Boxing and manager of British heavyweight Anthony Joshua, answered a question about a potential fight of his client with American Deontay Wilder.

AJ wanted to fight three times this year. Wilder is on the card; victory for both and the fight is inevitable. We got from a situation of it being pretty much agreed for January to not being agreed. But now we fight in December and hopefully we make the fight for March.
Recall, December 23 in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) will be held in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) boxing night, in which Anthony Joshua will fight with Otto Wallin, and Deontay Wilder will meet in the ring with Joseph Parker.
The 34-year-old Joshua has 26 wins (23 by knockout) and three losses. The 38-year-old Wilder has 43 wins (42 by knockout), one draw and two losses.
