AJ faces Otto Wallin in a heavyweight showdown as part of a stacked card of action just before Christmas.

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk's delayed encounter left a void to fill but the promise of Joshua v Wallin followed by Deontay Wilder v Joseph Parker and Daniel Dubois v Jarrell Miller has set up a big evening of action.

Joshua defeated Jermaine Franklin in underwhelming circumstances before toppling Robert Helenius in a more convincing showdown in August.

If he topples Wallin and Wilder polishes off Parker, the path will be cleared for a Joshua-Wilder scrap in 2024.

Wallin boasts 26 professional victories, with just one defeat to his name - against Tyson Fury in 2019. He is a solid heavyweight, but is very much the underdog against AJ, and will be determined to make the most of his big opportunity.
