If Otto Wallin prevails over him on Saturday in Saudi Arabia, Anthony Joshua, the former heavyweight champion, stated he has “no future” in the sport.
Joshua, the two-time world champion, is scheduled to fight against former WBC champion Deontay Wilder. In 2021, Joshua was defeated by Oleksandr Usyk of Ukraine for the WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO titles.
If both of them defeat their opponents in Riyadh—Wilder is up against Joseph Parker—they might square off.
When asked if it was difficult to concentrate on Wallin given that a fight with Wilder might be on the horizon, Joshua responded on Thursday that he was just concentrating about Saturday’s match.
The 34-year-old British remarked, “My heart, my soul, every cell in my body is fully focused towards Otto Wallin and doing what I know I can do.”
“I am aware of my life’s purpose. However, I must also acknowledge that this represents the end of the road; if I fail to pass it, there will be no more. I’m working for Otto Wallin and am entirely committed to it.
