Before the event, many were expecting to see a clash between Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder if the two were successful in their respective fights on December 23. But 'The Bronze Bomber' came up short against Joseph Parker and lost via unanimous decision.

In the post-fight press conference, 'AJ' commented that a blockbuster clash against Wilder could still be on the cards in the near future. He stated:

"Wilder just came up short but he'll live to fight another day. Me and him could still get it on, could still get it cracking. I believe I'm a massive threat myself and Wilder's a threat and I still think it does amazing numbers if we get it on. But I'll leave that down to my management, my trainers, promoters to make the decision. I'm down to fight anyone whenever, whoever," said Anthony Joshua.
