Eddie Hearn is'shocked by Dillian Whyte’s failed drug tests' as he reveals the reason Anthony Joshua would KO the fight.

Anthony Joshua takes action

The highly anticipated fight between Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte has been called off due to Whyte's failed doping tests. Joshua, who was set to face Whyte this Saturday, made the decision to remove Whyte from the fight due to the seriousness of the failed tests.

A shocking similarity

This situation echoes the collapse of Conor Benn vs Chris Eubank Jr in October, where Eubank Jr failed two tests. However, in that instance, the fight was pushed through despite the red flags. This time, Joshua and his team decided to terminate the contract immediately.

Hearn's surprising reaction

Promoter Eddie Hearn, who has supported Benn in his fight against doping charges, has taken a different approach with Whyte. Hearn stated that he does not know Whyte well enough to offer his support, but hopes that Whyte can prove his innocence and save his fighting future. Hearn emphasized the importance of discovering any illegal substances in an athlete's system.

New opponent for Joshua

With Whyte out of the fight, Joshua will now face Robert Helenius this weekend at the O2 Arena. Helenius, who recently had a TKO victory over Mika Mielonen, is already known to UK fans for his previous fights against Deontay Wilder and Derek Chisora.
