Anthony Joshua’s new opponent for the defence of his World Heavyweight titles on the 1st of June in New York won’t be Luis Ortiz.
The Cuban’s camp says the idea of him replacing Jarred Miller is a no go.
A new opponent for IBF, WBA and WBO champion Joshua is expected to be announced this week.
Joshua was due to fight Miller at New York's Madison Square Garden ‑ the British fighter's US debut.
But Miller was denied a licence after an "adverse finding" from a sample taken on 20 March.
