Joshua confirmed that discussions are underway, though nothing has been officially signed and sealed. If both fighters emerge victorious in their respective bouts next month, a potential face-off in 2024 could be on the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilder echoed the sentiment, expressing his satisfaction at being in the same room with Joshua after a long time. He conveyed well wishes to Joshua and expressed hope that they can face each other soon, emphasising that it&#8217;s about time for the much-anticipated bout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rumours about a fight hosted by Saudi Arabia have gained traction over the past 12 months, adding to the anticipation surrounding the potential clash between these former world champions. Fans will be eagerly awaiting the outcomes of the upcoming matches and the possibility of a Joshua-Wilder showdown in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Betting\">Betting Implications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Joshua is favourite to win against Wallin and bettors need to monitor his performance closely to see if the Watford born fighter is likely to keep improving and reach his previous levels ahead of a potential clash with Wilder.  Wilder is also favourite to win his December 23 bout and the real anticipation among bettors and boxing fans regarding these two fighters is a potential meeting in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of writing BoyleSports are offering 2\/7 on Joshua to win, with Wallin 11\/4 and a draw 18\/1. It is a similar story for Wilder\u2019s bout with the bookie currently pricing the Bronze Bomber at 1\/6, Parker at 4\/1 and a draw 20\/1. Early indications suggest that the bookies make Wilder the favourite should he and Joshua come through their fights successfully and agree to a bout in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"mt-8 wp-block-top-list \" id=\"sports-book\">\n\n\t\n\t<section\n\t\tid=\"block_7cf1a8ba8256d855e0c0f9bee9db1ad7\"\n\t\t\t\t\tx-data=\"block_7cf1a8ba8256d855e0c0f9bee9db1ad7\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"@container\"\n\t>\n\t\t<div class=\"grid grid-cols-1  gap-8\" x-ref=\"container-block_7cf1a8ba8256d855e0c0f9bee9db1ad7\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/go.betting.com\/go\/boylesports\"\n\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\trel=\"nofollow noopener\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"BoyleSports Review 2026 in the UK\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"flex flex-grow flex-row items-center bg-white p-2 shadow group hover:no-underline \"\n\t\t\tdata-bt=\"tiles-betting-site-sm\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210-180x95.webp 180w, https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210-180x95.jpg 180w, https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210-360x189.webp 360w, https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210-360x189.jpg 360w, https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210.webp 400w, https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210.jpg 400w\"\n\t\t\t\tsizes=\"120px\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/betting.com\/gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/boylesports_postcard_400x210.jpg\"\n\t\talt=\"BoyleSports\"\n\t\t\t\t\twidth=\"120\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\theight=\"62\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"object-cover object-center bg-cover bg-center flex-shrink-0 w-[120px] lg:w-[100px] aspect-casino\"\n\t\tstyle=\" \"\n\t\tloading=\"lazy\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"flex flex-col px-3\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"text-sm font-semibold !leading-4 text-black duration-300 group-hover:text-red-100 lg:text-base\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-bt=\"tiles-betting-site-sm-title\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\tBoyleSports\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mt-1 flex flex-row items-center gap-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"star-rating h-auto w-[60px]\"\n\t\t style=\"--bt-star-percentage: 91.3084%; \"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text-xxs text-gray-60\">(4.5\/5)<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ml-auto\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"right-0 flex h-6 w-6 items-center justify-center border border-red-100 bg-white duration-300 group-hover:bg-red-100\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"w-3 h-3 text-red-100 rotate-180 duration-300\n\t\t\t\t\tgroup-hover:text-white\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"18\" height=\"16\" fill=\"currentColor\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 16\"><path d=\"M.29 7.315a.94.94 0 0 0 0 1.36l6.874 6.562a.937.937 0 0 0 1.293-1.356l-5.18-4.949h13.285c.52 0 .938-.418.938-.937a.935.935 0 0 0-.938-.938H3.277l5.184-4.945A.937.937 0 0 0 7.168.756L.293 7.32l-.004-.004Z\"\/><\/svg>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anthony Joshua vehemently denied being past his prime and engaged in a spirited news conference at Wembley&#8217;s OVO Arena.
