Eddie Hearn ‘expects’ Anthony Joshua to fight again after crash

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn “expects” British heavyweight Anthony Joshua to fight again following the death of two close friends – but admits there are no “guarantees”.

The 36-year-old sustained minor injuries in the road traffic accident in Nigeria on 29 December that killed Sina Ghami and Latif ‘Latz’ Ayodele.

The two-time world champion returned to training in January, posting a video on social media of him working out with the message “mental strength therapy”.

Hearn, who has promoted Joshua since he turned professional after winning gold at the 2012 Olympics, believes he will step back inside the ropes this year.

“I don’t think there are any guarantees he fights again, but at the same time I expect him to, because it is something that he loves,” Hearn said in an interview with First Round TV.

“And it is something he can carry those guys with him through as well and it is something he wants to do.

“From a boxing sense, physically it wasn’t easy what he went through either. People probably don’t realise the extent of that.

“He has been training, but he is not ready yet and won’t be for a while to return to boxing training.”
