During the last visit of Eddie Hear in the United States there were reports that the promoter of Anhtony Joshua is interested in signing a contract with Adam Kownacki (17-0, 14 KO). Rumors were quickly denied by the Polish manager, Keith Connolly, who said: "It's not true. Kownacki is a free agent, and his career is led by me and Al Haymon.

Meanwhile, Hearn, who was building his position on the American market during a conversation with IFL TV, offered to Kownacki to fight former WBC challenger Dereck Chisora (28-8, 20 KO). Earlier, the head of Matchroom Boxing also named Kownacki as a potential rival for Joshua's American debut.

So far, however, it looks like the unbeaten Polish heavy boxing will continue on the Premier Boxing Champions. The return of a Brooklyn resident in Brooklyn is announced for the summer

 

Dan Rafael believes that the offer offered by the team of Deontay Wilder (40-0, 39 KO) guaranteeing Anthony Joshule (21-0, 20 KO) 50 million dollars for a unification duel with four lanes is not just a marketing bluff. The ESPN journalist argues that the British promoter Eddie Hearn should negotiate with the "Bronze Bomber" camp and not demand a ready contract at the outset.

- It was a real proposition. In such situations, he first agrees to the money, and then he meets personally to discuss the remaining issues. They would surely send him contact after getting through all the details. Nobody starts such conversations from sending a contact. Do not buy what Eddie says, "Rafael said, commenting on the confusion around the potential battle at the top of the royal division.

For now, it is uncertain whether this year Wilder will fight Joshua. If the negotiations eventually end in a fiasco, the American probably will face Dominic Breazeale (19-1, 17 KO), and the Joshua will fight with Aleksander Povetkin (34-1, 24 KO).
