It looks like Klitschko will fight Black Hope Joshua in a unique unification fight(usually champions aren't allowed to fight for vacant belts but the corrupt organizations aren't willing to throw away a few hundred k for principles). http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/boxing/anthony-joshua-vs-wladimir-klitschko-9002661

AFAIK, Wlad doesn't have a belt so it isn't a unification.

The Klitschko-Joshua fight for December may be off.

Klitschko wants to fight for more than just Joshua's IBF belt. Apparently the WBA is going to make a decision today whether or not their belt can also be included in this fight. This comes from Dan Rafael so it's pretty legit. It may or may not happen.

I feel that Joshua with short notice is probably a poor choice for a comeback fight for a 40 year old fighter who looked confused to maybe shot against Fury close to 1 year ago. Lucas Browne is older and much more limited than Joshua and really isn't more experienced than Joshua due to his late start in pro boxing. I will say this the Browne win over Chagaev in the gutsy manner that he won is a better chin check win than Joshua's win over domestic level Whyte.
