Anthony Joshua put in a terrific performance to beat Otto Wallin inside the distance but Deontay Wilder's shock points loss to Joseph Parker on the same bill scuppered plans for the long-awaited heavyweight showdown.
Briton Joshua boxed magnificently in Saudi Arabia, dominating Wallin before the Swede's corner pulled him out of the fight at the end of the fifth.
Earlier in the night, American Wilder appeared a shadow of himself in Riyadh, and was hurt badly in the eighth as New Zealander Parker was awarded a unanimous decision.
Joshua says he heard that Deontay lost, So what? He'll be back.
He adds Deontay, everything that he said about me, he could rip him apart right now, but he is going to take the higher ground.
Anthony Joshua says if Wilder wanted to, he can come back as he is sure everyone still wants to see that fight.
