Fresh off a dominant second-round knockout of Francis Ngannou, Anthony Joshua has set his sights on his long-awaited showdown with Tyson Fury.
Joshua Makes Statement with Ngannou Win:
The victory over Ngannou, who previously dropped Fury in their October fight, served as a powerful message to the heavyweight champion. Joshua floored Ngannou three times, leaving him unconscious in the ring.
“AJ” Wants the Undisputed Title:
In his post-fight interview, Joshua expressed his continued desire to fight the winner of the upcoming Fury vs. Usyk bout, which aims to unify the heavyweight division.
Fury Plays it Cool, Eyes on Usyk First:
However, Fury, who is scheduled to face Oleksandr Usyk on May 18th, seems unfazed by the challenge. He acknowledges a potential fight with Joshua in the future but emphasizes his focus on Usyk and a potential rematch in October.
Fury Offers Alternative for Joshua:
With his own busy schedule, Fury suggests that Joshua consider fighting Filip Hrgovic if he wants to stay active while waiting for a potential mega-fight.
The Undisputed Heavyweight Showdown: Still on Hold?
It appears that boxing fans will have to wait a bit longer for the dream matchup between Joshua and Fury. While Joshua is eager to fight the winner of Fury vs. Usyk, Fury prioritizes his upcoming challenges first.
