Eddie Hearn predicts Anthony Joshua will outbox Deontay in highly anticipated matchup

AJ's Explosive KO Win Sets Up Showdown with Wilder

After securing a sensational knockout victory over Robert Helenius, former two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua is now set to face off against Deontay Wilder in a long-awaited grudge match. The showdown is expected to take place in Saudi Arabia in January.

Hearn Believes AJ Can Comfortably Outbox Wilder

Eddie Hearn, the head of Matchroom Boxing, is confident that Joshua has what it takes to outbox the devastating knockout artist, Deontay Wilder. Despite acknowledging the power and challenge Wilder presents, Hearn firmly believes that Joshua's skill and technique will prevail.

Joshua Finds His Mojo With First KO Win in Nearly Three Years

With his explosive seventh-round KO victory over Helenius, Joshua has notched his first stoppage win in almost three years. Hearn is thrilled to see Joshua regain his momentum and believes that this newfound confidence will play a crucial role in his upcoming bout with Wilder.

Methodical Approach Over Killer Instinct

While Joshua showcased improved footwork against Helenius, Hearn believes that a more cautious and strategic approach will be key in the fight against Wilder. Hearn prefers Joshua to box tentatively rather than going all-out, as he believes the former can break down Wilder and secure victory.

Anticipation Builds for One of Boxing's Best Fights

Both Joshua and Wilder held all the heavyweight titles in 2018 and were on the verge of facing each other. However, the highly anticipated matchup never materialized. Fans have been eagerly awaiting this clash of titans, and Joshua is determined to keep heavyweight boxing in the spotlight.
