Joshua lines up Wembley for next two fights
British world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua’s next two fights are at Wembley Stadium in September and April.
Joshua will defend his WBA, IBF and WBO belts there on September 22, and return to Wembley on April 13. His promoter Matchroom was in negotiations with WBA mandatory challenger Alexander Povetkin for September after dealings for a unification bout with WBC champion Deontay Wilder stalled. An announcement is expected next week. Joshua’s successful challenge against Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley drew a British post-war attendance record of 90,000 in April 2017. He has since twice filled Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, defending his belts against Carlos Takam last October before taking Joseph Parker’s WBO belt in March. Both events pulled in a combined 150,000 fans.
