Anthony Joshua has been left without an opponent next Saturday as his fight with Dillian Whyte was cancelled.

Whyte returned 'adverse analytical findings' in a VADA test, promoter Eddie Hearn announced on Saturday, a week before fight was due to take place.

It is currently unclear whether Joshua will seek another opponent or wait for a proposed showdown with Deontay Wilder in January.

One potential option, however, is heavyweight contender Filip Hrgovic.

The Croatian was due to face Demsey McKean on the undercard of Joshua vs Whyte.

Another heavyweight meant to be competing on the undercard is veteran Derek Chisora, who grew up attending the same gym as Joshua.

Having won just one of his last five fights, including a resounding loss to Tyson Fury in December, 'Del Boy' was due to face Gerald Washington at The O2 next Saturday.
