Any word on what Price gets should he win. It won't be Joshua. Probably a chance for a shot at Fres Oquendo/Charr.

This move could be aimed at giving Povetkin more visibility in the British market. Fighting a well-known British opponent in England on the under card of the second most important fight in the career of the most famous, active British boxer. It seems pretty evident that Hearn is maneuvering to set-up a Joshua - Povetkin fight.

Also, as someone else mentioned, Joshua's resume would be like 10 times better than Wilder's if he had wins against Povetkin, Parker, Klitschko, and Takam. He would have cleaned-out the majority of his competition and left the remainder of his competition in the dust.
