All boxing fans are anticipating a 'Battle of Britain' in the heavyweight division later this year – but not necessarily involving Dillian Whyte.
However, according to Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn, Anthony Joshua could face off against Whyte for a second time later this year in a rematch of their 'fight of the year' contender from December 2015.
Should Anthony Joshua make a successful first defence of his IBF world heavyweight title this summer – and a unification fight with Tyson Fury doesn't materialise – Hearn has said that relighting the fire on Joshua and Whyte's longstanding rivalry may be their best bet, telling Mail Online:
Anthony Joshua KO'd Dillian Whyte in the 7th round last December.
London fighters Joshua and Whyte are huge rivals inside and outside of their ring, and their highly-hyped grudge match in 2015 solidified AJ as the biggest star in British boxing.
Whyte suffered a broken jaw in the fight and is yet to make a comeback. We're certain he's up for revenge.
