Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul will face off in Miami on December 19, 2025, according to the latest reports.

Former world champion Joshua has agreed to fight the YouTuber-turned-boxer in a decision which has stunned the sport.

According to reporter Mike Coppinger, the bout will not be an exhibition but rather a heavyweight contest under Queensberry rules.

According to the same report, an agreement between both camps has been reached - declared a "done deal" - amid claims in the Mail that each fighter will pocket £70million.

Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, insisted on Thursday that a deal is yet to be finalised, as the former world champion decides on his return to the ring for the first time since being knocked out by Daniel Dubois in September 2024.

Amid longstanding reports of a British 'superfight' between Joshua and Tyson Fury, Hearn has said his client would require a warm-up bout first.

“[Joshua] has been out of the ring for nearly a year and a half,” Hearn told BBC radio on Thursday. “If he receives several tens of millions to [end his wait to fight] and we get a chance to silence this guy that's annoyed the boxing community for a long time, then maybe. Maybe. A lot of work to do.”

“[The Paul fight is] definitely not agreed yet. We want the real stuff but we want the business as well."

If this does happen then Paul better not survive the first round.

catchweight of 245 pounds, not that it makes a difference

[TitoFan]

245??

That's hardly a stretch for AJ.

Jake should've gotten catchweight classes from Ginger.



(Ginger would've drained him to 190)

Catchweight! Jake is in some serious trouble and this will be the end of his boxing career.
