Anthony Joshua aims for July return but won't fight Tyson Fury next after fatal car crash, says Eddie Hearn | Boxing News

Anthony Joshua is targeting a return to the ring in July after surviving a fatal car crash in December, but will not yet fight Tyson Fury next, according to his promoter Eddie Hearn.

Joshua was involved in a road accident while visiting family in Nigeria over Christmas, which resulted in the deaths of two of his friends and training team members, Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele.

Joshua, initially hospitalized, had just defeated Jake Paul in a sixth-round knockout victory in Miami.

Fury is currently preparing to face Arslanbek Makhmudov at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 11 in what will mark his first fight since losing in a rematch against Oleksandr Usyk in December 2024.
