Anthony Joshua will fight as planned on Saturday at London’s O2 Arena, with promoter Eddie Hearn expected to reveal Dillian Whyte’s replacement soon.

The heavyweight rematch was canceled after Whyte returned “an adverse finding” from a drug test last week.

Whyte, said he was “devastated” and “completely innocent.”

However, Eddie Hearn told newsmen, “I believe that fight will be signed and an announcement will be made on Monday night or first thing in the morning.”

“The absolute plan is to have a show on Saturday night,” he stated. It’s a minefield because everyone puts their name in the hat, and the credible ones want £10 million, a private plane, and the contract to include my left lower limb.”

Anthony Joshua, reacted calmly after the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) told promoters Matchroom and boxing authorities of Whyte’s test result, resulting in the fight’s cancellation.

“With a week until one of the biggest fights of the year, I was stunned and perplexed.” “AJ sent me a message that was unbelievably calm,” Hearn remarked.

“AJ is determined to fight. He’s looked terrific in camp. I’ve never seen him in better form.

“The plan is to get the most credible opponent and someone who can put Anthony Joshua to test in preparation for Deontay Wilder “
