Eddie Hearn sets date for potential Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte rematch

Eddie Hearn expects Anthony Joshua to fight Dillian Whyte in late July or early August before a potential showdown with Deontay Wilder in December.

Joshua, 33, picked up his first win in over two years earlier this month by winning an uninspiring decision against Jermaine Franklin in London. The former two-time heavyweight champion has been linked to a rematch against Whyte after 'The Bodysnatcher' vented his anger after feeling he was snubbed in favour of Franklin.

The British rivals have fought twice before as Whyte beat Joshua in their amateur days only for 'AJ' to avenge the defeat in 2015 when both men were unbeaten as professionals. Joshua's promoter Hearn expects the fight to take place on either July 29 or August 5 and will likely take place at a stadium in London.
