Joshua, who knocked out Whyte to add the British title to his Commonwealth and WBC International titles title via seventh-round technical knockout (TKO), is desperate for a rematch.

Deontay Wilder is also desperate to fight the former two-time world champion, but Hearn told Daily Mail that AJ will fight low-ranked boxers first. He said as per Boxing Scene:

“We’re all gunning for a December return. It’s not confirmed, but that’s where everyone’s minds are at. We’re not booking a venue, but the conversations – as recently as yesterday – was December for his return. I don’t want to start mentioning names, but it’s a top 15 fight.

“It will be someone credible, who Joshua can come back, express himself against and build on what he’s learning in camp. He can then build himself back up to fighting for a heavyweight title again.”
