Promoter Eddie Hearn seems as determined as he is optimistic over making a super-fight, this year, between IBF heavyweight ruler Anthony Joshua and former world champion Wladimir Klitschko. Hearn, in speaking with Sky Sports and The Telegraph, says he has not one but two dates in mind for what he says could be “the biggest fight in British boxing history.”
Hearn says the fight, less than a month ago an unthinkable match-up for this year, is “still very much on the cards,” and that it could happen in November or December. Hearn wants to lock the fight down before 2016 comes to an end.
