Joshua-Klitschko rematch could be held in Nigeria - Hearn
A potential rematch between Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko could be held in Nigeria or Dubai, according to promoter Eddie Hearn.
Joshua stopped Wladimir Klitschko in April to add the WBA world heavyweight title to his IBF crown in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley Stadium.
Hearn, who is Joshua's promoter, says they are finalising offers from potential venues for a rematch.
"I really get the feeling for Wladimir it is not just about the money, it is about being involved in a special event again," he said.
The Principality Stadium in Cardiff has been discussed as a possible venue but Hearn does not feel the capacity is big enough to tempt Klitschko into agreeing a rematch.
