The 37-year-old former WBC, WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion is on the comeback trail and, all being well, heading into a huge domestic contest with Anthony Joshua in November. He lost twice on points to current king Oleksandr Usyk in 2024 in 12-rounders designed to crown the division leader. The Englishman, 35-2-1 (24 KOs), followed those defeats with retirement that came to an end last month when he outhustled Arslanbek Makhmudov over the championship distance.
