Hopefully it will be someone like Thompson or Arreola like others have mentioned before. But I'm guessing they don't want to risk somebody like that before taking on Whyte in September. So probably a mid-tier UK fighter like Ian Lewison or Richard Towers.
When Sky Sports were giving a preview of their July 18th card last night they had 3 fights planned but none with Anthony Joshua. I assume it's cause his opponent isn't named yet?
I haven't heard confirmation of him being pulled off the card, Eddie Hearn has said multiple times Joshua would be fighting July 18th. If Joshua does fight, I hope it's a top 25 Heavyweight and not some total bum.
