With a fight with WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk probably no doubt for this year will definitely not retire from WBC and online heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has decided he ultimately wants to take on Anthony Joshua in what will obviously be all British Super Fights. Speaking on social media on Monday, Fury addressed Joshua directly.
“I think you’ve all heard that I’m going to be fighting within the next few months,” Fury said, “and I thought before announcing to my opponent that I needed to do this, just in case: Anthony Joshua , I know you just lost to Usyk in a fight and you are currently beltless, and I wanted to give you a chance to fight me for the WBC World Heavyweight Championship and the title in a few days. day to month. You’re about to start a twelve-round match, so you’re very fit, you’re ready. I will notify you in a few months. If you’re interested, I’ll send you the last day and we can rummage. A British battle for the WBC Heavyweight World Championship. Let me know if you are interested. If not, I will choose another opponent. Thank you very much and good night. Boom. “
Fury knocked out Dillian Whyte last April, then decided to announce that he had retired. Looks like retirement doesn’t last long. For Fury expressed interest in facing Usyk this year as Usyk defeated Joshua in their rematch a few weeks ago. However, according to Fury, Usyk, has made it clear that this year is too early for him to be in the ring with him. The flamboyant Fury, then, is looking for another opponent. He and Joshua were supposed to meet in 2021, but the fight is over. That bout, if it happens, will be the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world.
If Joshua chooses to accept Fury’s offer, the undisputed championship won’t be at stake, but it will make for an exciting and massive showdown, especially in England where both boxers are both background. In reality, however, it’s unlikely Joshua will be ready to take on Fury this year. He was a bit down after losing to Usyk for the second time last month, and has just emerged from that grueling game without the titles he once owned and with his second loss. three on the resume. In other words, the famous Joshua may need some time to recover. No doubt the man could still bring home many dollars and eyeballs when he decided to return to the ring.
