Anthony Joshua needed a matter of moments before he switched his attentions to who will be his next opponent.
The undefeated heavyweight champion of the world emphatically knocked out experienced Russian Alexander Povetkin on Saturday night in round seven before ramping up the excitement for his first fight in 2019.

Anthony Joshua switched attentions to his next opponent after a knockout win at Wembley
Anthony Joshua's next fight?
Dillian Whyte - (1/1)
The Brixton fighter has history with Joshua having fought once before. Coming out on the losing side, Whyte wants a second contest and a chance at redemption.
Evens in the betting market, Whyte will be the man chosen if a deal with Wilder fails to - again - translate into a fight.
With Wilder negotiations seen as difficult, Dillian Whyte is the easier option to arrange for April
Deontay Wilder - (3/1)
The American is Joshua's 'number one' target with Povetkin now out of the way. But the two camps have previously been in negotiations and remained without a fight so this one is not as easy as fans would like.
Sport is all about key moments and this is a fight that has to happen soon or it risks losing the massive appeal it possesses at this very moment.
Joshua made his move announcing his desire to fight, now it's over to Team Wilder.

Tyson Fury - (4/1)
Having made a sensational return to the ring the 'Gypsy King' as he refers to himself is convinced that Joshua is scared to fight him.
Speaking on his Instagram moments after Joshua's knockout win over Povetkin, Fury said: 'It is safe to say Anthony Joshua and his team will NEVER fight the Gypsy King.'
It ramps up the pressure to make a fight happen and at 4/1, do not rule this one out.

Oleksandr Usyk (5/1)
Usyk will not be thinking about an April showpiece with Joshua quite yet. The undisputed cruiserweight champion is busy in camp preparing to face Tony Bellew but may soon decide to make the step up to the lucrative heavyweight market.
Not the heaviest puncher in the sport, Usyk would be troubled by Joshua's sheer power but he is an accomplished boxer and would no doubt love a shot to take the belts off the Briton.
Oleksandr Usyk is currently a cruiserweight but looks capable of making the step up a division

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
