AJ'S NEXT CHAPTER: HEARN PLOTS MEGA-FIGHTS FOR BRITAIN'S HEAVYWEIGHT KING!

Right then, fight fans, Eddie Hearn's been flapping his gums again, and this time, it's about the future of Britain's own Anthony Joshua. The MailOnline spilled the beans, confirming what we all suspected: AJ is lining up a couple of proper tests against former world champions. This isn't about padding the record; this is about getting back to the top of the heavyweight mountain, a place he knows well.

After that brutal showing against Ngannou – a performance that silenced a fair few doubters, mind – Joshua's stock is soaring. Hearn's not wasting any time, eyeing up opponents who bring pedigree, if not necessarily their absolute prime. We're talking about blokes who've worn the gold, who understand the pressure cooker of a big fight night. It’s a smart play, keeping AJ sharp, keeping him in the mix for that undisputed shot everyone craves.

This isn't just about winning; it's about proving he's still got that fire, that hunger that saw him unify titles. We’ve seen the likes of Lennox Lewis and Joe Calzaghe navigate tricky paths to greatness, and AJ's journey is no different. He needs to keep knocking over big names, showing that powerful jab and devastating right hand are still the best in the business. It's an exciting time for British boxing, with our man firmly back in the spotlight, ready to remind everyone why he’s a two-time world champion. The sweet science demands these challenges, and AJ looks ready to answer the bell.
