Anthony Joshua has been told his career is "finished" if he loses to Deontay Wilder this year.
Joshua recently returned to the ring in a points win over Jermaine Franklin as he looked to regain momentum after his back-to-back losses against Oleksandr Usyk. It was expected that 'AJ' would then next compete in the ring on domestic shores this summer, but his latest appearance could be put on hold until December where he is currently in talks to face Wilder.
Given the magnitude of a potential meeting, Joshua's return could be delayed until then despite the prospect of a potential rematch with British rival Dillian Whyte. And the 'Body Snatcher' has suggested Joshua is no longer the leading fighter in the UK despite his star power.
