Both Joshua and Wilder are former heavyweight champions, and their rivalry has been simmering for years.

Each fighter boasts a fearsome reputation and knockout power, promising explosive encounters in the ring.

Details of the deal are still being finalized, but reports suggest the first fight will take place on March 9th, 2024, in Saudi Arabia.

Wilder, on the other hand, will rely on his explosive power and one-punch KO threat to put Joshua away early.
