A Swedish super heavyweight boxer has threatened to disrupt a planned fight between two former world champions.
Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin made a bold statement about the fight between two former champions Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, which, according to unofficial information, they intend to arrange on March 9 next year.
The boxer threatened to ruin the British’s plans, noting that he had made a huge mistake by choosing him as his next opponent.
“Joshua and I sparred in 2016 before his fight with Charles Martin. He knows my level. I have a big will and a big hunger. So I’m sure he’s not looking at me. Anthony knows he’s going to fight in an intense fight that will come out. we have sparring and communication.
People keep asking me about the Joshua and Wilder fight on March 9th. That is, in two and a half months. I declare now that this fight will not happen. I apologize. I know people want to see him, but Anthony made a mistake when he called me his opponent,” Boxing News 24 quotes Wallin as saying.
We remind you that the fight between Joshua and Wallin will take place on December 23 as part of a big boxing night in Saudi Arabia.
Wallin previously called Joshua psychologically fragile and insecure.
