Rico Verhoeven's boxing match in the undercard of Fury-Joshua is canceled

Karim Erja, Verhoeven's manager, confirmed discussions about a potential fight with Deontay Wilder, but no agreements were reached. Verhoeven is now focusing on other opponents for next year. His next fight may be part of the undercard for the Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua match, known as the 'Battle of Britain', airing on Netflix. This would be Verhoeven's first bout since losing to Oleksandr Usyk in May, a match that ended controversially with a technical knockout decision.
