Fresh off his win over novice Francis Ngannou last Friday night, Anthony Joshua claims he’s ready to fight Tyson Fury now, even “in his back garden” in the UK.
If that were only true, we know that Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) and Fury are destined to fight in Saudi Arabia if the fight ever comes off.
It could be difficult to negotiate the fight between them if Fury shines in victory against Oleksandr Usyk, considering he’ll play it up and want a king’s ransom to face AJ.
It’ll be interesting to see if the Saudis placate Fury or tell him to get lost, and substitute Joseph Parker as Joshua’s opponent.
