Anthony Joshua’s “Career Would Be Over” If He Fights Wilder Says Heavyweight Rival

Anthony Joshua has been warned by a fierce rival that a fight against Deontay Wilder would be ‘signing his life and career away.’

Joshua and Wilder have been linked to a fight since both became heavyweight champions over 6 years ago. At one stage the two heavy hitters controlled all the belts in the division and were in talks for an undisputed clash, but negotiations failed and now both have lost their titles.

Tyson Fury took Wilder’s WBC belt after winning two of their three fights. ‘AJ’ lost his WBA, IBF and WBO titles to Oleksandr Usyk in 2021 and failed to regain them the following year in their rematch.

One man who doesn’t think Joshua should go anywhere near Wilder is brash American Jarrell Miller.

Miller has had a fierce rivalry with the former two-time champion ever since they were scheduled to face each other back in 2019. ‘Big Baby’ was pulled from the fight after testing positive for several banned substances in the lead up and was replaced by Andy Ruiz Jr.
