SunSport has all the latest on the huge heavyweight showdown expected for 2024.

When is Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder and where is the fight expected to take place?

ESPN journalist Mike Coppinger has reported that a deal is in place for Joshua and Wilder to meet on Saturday, March 9th 2024.

However, both fighters must win in their separate bouts in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, December 23rd for the fight to take place on that date.

Like the upcoming ‘Day of Reckoning’ the huge heavyweight clash is expected to take place in Saudi Arabia.

An official location has not yet been identified but the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh would be considered.

What TV channel is Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder expected to be on and can it be live streamed?

In June 2022, Anthony Joshua signed a deal with DAZN which sees all of his fights broadcast exclusively on the platform.

This is the case for the upcoming ‘Day of Reckoning’ with AJ topping the huge bill in Saudi.

Due to Joshua’s deal with DAZN, it’s highly likely that should the Wilder fight go ahead in 2024, they will have the rights to broadcast the bout.

What has Eddie Hearn said about Joshua vs Wilder?

Anthony Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn told Sky Sports: “Things can move very quickly.

“To lock in a fighters’ plans for 10 to 12 months is a really good position for him, especially if it comes with the lucrativeness of a Wilder fight in the Middle East. So two fights is definitely being discussed.

“March is probably the time we can strike for that mega-fight obviously for the financial rewards that you’d look for for a fight with that kind of risk and danger.

“I think there’s a lot of things that need to happen. Of course they both need to win. They both need to come out unscathed really. If there are any niggles or any injuries or any cuts, it’s very difficult to go back into a March fight.

“It’s going to be a very quick turnaround if we were to go on that date but of course if AJ doesn’t win, if Wilder doesn’t win, it’s all irrelevant anyway.”
