Anthony Joshua's fight delay could be due to talks over a four-man heavyweight tournament with Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and Oleksandr Usyk.
The British star returned after back-to-back defeats by Usyk when he outpointed Jermaine Franklin in London to return to winning ways. It was expected Joshua would continue a rebuild of his heavyweight career this summer, after urging fans to remain patient with him as he continues to step up the levels of opponent again.
A second meeting against Dillian Whyte touted for the summer given their respective victories over Franklin. However 'AJ' stunned the world by announcing on social media that his next fight would be delayed until December.
