The former undisputed cruiserweight champion and sits as AJ’s WBO mandatory challenger.
Tyson Fury
Fury is the WBC heavyweight champion and previously held the WBA, IBF & WBO belts now belonging to AJ.
Adam Kownacki
Kownacki was a highly touted rising heavyweight until his recent loss to Robert Helenius.
Luis Ortiz

Jarrell Miller
Miller was supposed to face AJ for his US debut last year but failed multiple drug tests and so was replaced by Andy Ruiz Jr.
