As the virtual arena buzzes with diverse opinions, one thing is certain – the Riyadh Season: Day of Reckoning promo has successfully stirred the pot of emotions among fans. The eclectic mix of reactions showcases the dynamism of the sports community. Moreover, the end of this season is what fans are looking forward to, the highly awaited, grudge match between Joshua and Wilder.
Joshua vs. Wilder: What will it take?
Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder have allegedly scheduled a date for their much-anticipated grudge match, ending a prolonged wait for the collision between the two heavyweight giants. The 34-year-old AJ and 38-year-old Wilder, who have engaged in a longstanding feud since the time they were champions, are poised to culminate it by stepping into the ring together.
The only remaining piece for the realization of their highly awaited encounter is for both fighters to emerge victorious in their upcoming bouts against Otto Wallin and Joseph Parker, set to take place in Saudi Arabia this month. If successful, reports suggest a springtime clash next year is in the offing.
According to media reports, both pugilists have purportedly agreed to a lucrative Saudi showdown scheduled for March 9, 2024. This revelation has sparked widespread elation among boxing enthusiasts globally, who have long been yearning for the confirmation of a date for the much-discussed matchup between Joshua and Wilder.

Eddie Hearn, Joshua’s promoter cited in an interview for ESPN, “The reason that fight is happening with both on the same night is to prepare for and build a fight between the two. So, the contracts aren’t signed, talks continue. But everybody wants to make that fight.”
