Promoter Eddie Hearn expects British heavyweight Anthony Joshua to fight again following the deaths of two of his close friends, but admits there are “no guarantees”.

The 36-year-old suffered minor injuries in a traffic accident in Nigeria on December 29 that killed Sina Gami and Latif “Latz” Ayodele.

The two-time world champion returned to training in January, and posted a video on social media exercising under the slogan “Cure Mental Strength.”

Hearn, who has promoted Joshua since he turned professional after winning gold at the 2012 Olympics, believes he will return to the ropes this year.

“I don’t think there are any guarantees that he will fight again, but at the same time I expect him to, because it is something he loves,” Hearn said in an interview with First Round TV.

“And that’s something he can carry those guys with him as well and it’s something he wants to do.

“From a boxing perspective, what he went through wasn’t easy physically either. Maybe people don’t realize the extent of it.”

He added: “He has been training, but he is not ready yet and will not be able to return to boxing training for a while.”
