Anthony Joshua Set for Eight-Week Recovery Following Training Injury
Anthony Joshua is facing an eight-week recovery period after sustaining a minor injury during training. The former world heavyweight champion, who is striving to reclaim another shot at a world title following his knockout defeat to Daniel Dubois, has been out of the ring since that September loss. Promoter Eddie Hearn has confirmed the setback is minor but will require time to heal.
While speculation continues to swirl around a potential clash with Tyson Fury, it remains uncertain whether that highly anticipated bout will materialize—especially after Fury’s recent announcement of yet another retirement.
What This Means for Joshua’s Comeback
Anthony Joshua’s journey back to the top of the heavyweight division has encountered yet another obstacle. After a tough loss to Daniel Dubois, the pressure has been mounting on the British fighter to bounce back strong. This latest injury may delay his return, but it doesn’t rule out the possibility of a high-profile comeback fight later this year.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding a match-up with Tyson Fury, fans remain hopeful that Joshua will soon find himself back in the spotlight, potentially setting up a blockbuster showdown once he’s fully recovered.
Stay tuned for updates on Joshua’s rehabilitation and potential opponents as the heavyweight landscape continues to shift.
