Anthony Joshua finally reveals date he will face Wilder

- Anthony Joshua has picked April 13, 2019 as the preferred date to fight Deontay Wilder in the UK

- The American boxer called out Joshua after defending his heavyweight title against Tyson Fury this month

- Both fighters remain unbeaten in their professional career

World heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has finally revealed the date he will fight Deontay Wilder.

The 29-year-old while speaking with ESPN's First Take called out the American boxer saying he was ready to make the unification match a reality.

Wilder defended his WBC Heavyweight Championship after sharing spoils with Tyson Fury earlier this month.

"My situation is that: [Wilder's] saying that I won't fight him," he said via BadLeft Hook.

"As I've said, I'm willing to fight Deontay Wilder [on] April 13th in London. So I don't know what more I have to do to get that message across.

"He's more interested in fighting Tyson Fury. Tyson Fury holds no world titles.

"Let me say this: I can't control what Deontay Wilder, I can't control what Tyson Fury does -- or even as far as what they say. But what I can control is what I say and what I'm doing.

"I made sure, with the negotiations, I've booked the date in advance, set the venue in advance and I'm making my point clear in front of everyone watching.

"I'm willing to fight any one of these guys, especially the [WBC] champion Deontay Wilder, April 13th at Wembley. What more can I say?.

"I'm not interested in Tyson Fury, though, 'cause he's not the champion. That's where I'm coming from.

"But that 'lineal' status, when I was joining the heavyweight ranks no-one told me about lineal champion.

"I knew about WBC, IBO, IBF, WBA and WBO, and I've got my hands on four of them. So I don't know where this lineal just popped out of the woodworks from.

"But if I've got to get my hands on that too, and that's a belt that the world's interested in, then Fury can step in if he's serious. That's where I'm coming from: I wanna fight the champions.

After his fight with Fury, Wilder took the microphone and called Joshua a chicken in a bid to get the Briton to fight.

Since then, the WBC has released an official statement to say that it had reached a "unanimous agreement" to sanction a rematch.

Legit.ng recalls that World's WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua recently went on vacation to Jamaica with his team.

The British pugilist remains unbeaten in his professional career following his victory over Alexander Povetkin in the seventh round in September.

He has won 21 out of his 22 fights through knockouts after turning pro in July, 2013 and staged his first fight at the O2 Arena in London against Scott Quigg in October the same year.
