WILDER’S OFFER TO AJ

Deontay WilDer has upped the stakes for a world heavyweight title unification fight with anthony Joshua by offering to box in london this summer. Wilder’s promoter Shelly Finkel pre-empted talks with team Joshua next week by announcing: ‘Deontay is pleased that Joshua has said he wants the fight and we want to make it clear that we will be willing for it to take place in london.’ the statement is a rebuttal of promoter eddie Hearn’s claim that it is the american who has been refusing offers.
