Anthony Joshua vs. Wladimir Klitschko blockbuster fight to air live on Showtime

When former champion Wladimir Klitschko challenges up-and-coming heavyweight titleholder Anthony Joshua on April 29, the only question for American fans had been which network would air the fight live.

It was announced Monday that Showtime will broadcast the Joshua-Klitschko heavyweight blockbuster bout live that Saturday at 4:15 p.m. ET as the centerpiece to its loaded spring schedule.

Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) will attempt to regain one of the three heavyweight titles he lost by upset to Tyson Fury in 2015 when he faces England's Joshua (18-0, 18 KOs) in London.

Showtime's spring schedule also includes previously announced welterweight bouts Andre Berto-Shawn Porter on April 22 and Kell Brook defending his title against Errol Spence Jr.
