Anthony Joshua Scheduled for Comeback Bout Against Jermaine Franklin on April 1st at the O2 Arena

Anthony Joshua Scheduled for Comeback Bout Against Jermaine Franklin on April 1st at the O2 Arena

- World Soccer Today -

Anthony Joshua is scheduled to have a comeback match against Jermaine Franklin on April 1st, following his loss to Oleksandr Usyk.

Anthony Joshua has chosen to fight Jermaine Franklin as his opponent for his comeback match, following two consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk. Joshua took some time off after failed negotiations for a fight against Tyson Fury in December. Joshua's promoter, Eddie Hearn, has announced that the comeback match is scheduled to take place on April 1st at the O2 Arena, and they are still considering potential opponents. It is understood that Joshua has focused on Franklin, whom he watched lose to Dillian Whyte in November. The decision was controversial, with many believing Franklin deserved to win.

The article discusses the possibility of a rematch between Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte in the summer, with both fighters having separate bouts before then. Joshua's next bout is scheduled for April 1st at the O2 Arena, where he has not fought in seven years. Joshua is considering Jermaine Franklin as his opponent, as he has a similar build to Whyte, unlike other options such as Otto Wallin and Demsey McKean. Joshua has recently returned to the United States to find a new trainer, having parted ways with Robert Garcia after his loss to Oleksandr Usyk. Joshua is considering hiring Derrick James, the coach of Errol Spence Jr and Jermell Charlo, who was nominated for trainer of the year. Joshua plans to spend the entire training camp in Dallas, Texas before returning to London for the fight.
