Talks are ongoing for a huge showdown between Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder in Saudi Arabia.

But the Matchroom promoter isn’t impressed with the Bronze Bomber.

Speaking to Boxing Social he said: “I cannot believe how highly people rate Deontay Wilder. He’s never beaten a top-five heavyweight.

“Luis Ortiz is his best win – he was getting smashed in the first fight, he was 7-0 down in the second fight. He’s never beaten an elite heavyweight.”

Joshua eventually managed to knock out Robert Helenius in his last outing.

Who do you think comes out on top in a clash between the two former heavyweight champions? Let us know in the comments.
