Klitschko targets Joshua after helping Brit beat Andy Ruiz Jr.
Wladimir Klitschko looks likely to make a sensational return to boxing in 2020 after teasing fans with a trio of potential opponents according to World Boxing News.
The Ukrainian, who helped Anthony Joshua gain redemption against Andy Ruiz Jr. recently in a mentoring capacity, admitted on social media the Briton is now a target.
Klitschko also has WBC title holder Deontay Wilder and old foe Tyson Fury on his radar.
Klitschko will find it hard to nail down any of his targets. Wilder and Fury will both be off the menu until later next year, at the very earliest.
As for Joshua, mandatories will also put a block on any return.
“Let me entertain you with this and you can like it ❤️ or not: Joshua 🆚 Klitschko 2.

There are a few contenders Klitschko could consider as the near 44 year-old readies for a 70th professional fight.
Joshua would have to wait as the unified ruler goes through stipulated bouts with the WBO and IBF.
