Anthony Joshua is eager to fight Tyson Fury while both boxers are still in their prime, but he is not willing to wait around for the fellow British heavyweight. Joshua has a title fight scheduled against Daniel Dubois on September 21 at Wembley Stadium, while Fury is set to rematch Oleksandr Usyk in December. A victory for Fury and Joshua in their upcoming fights could potentially set up a blockbuster undisputed fight between the two.
Joshua expressed his desire for the fight to happen sooner rather than later, stating, “Let’s just get the fight on while we’re fresh – how many wars do I have to have before I get to Fury? Let’s go.” Negotiations for the super-fight have been ongoing for years, but with new investment in boxing by Saudi Arabia, there is renewed hope that the bout might finally take place.
Having faced criticisms throughout his career, Joshua remains confident in his abilities, saying, “The only time it’s over for me, at any level, is when I say it is.” He is focused on his upcoming fight against Dubois and is determined to become a three-time champion. Joshua acknowledges Dubois as a formidable opponent and respects his skills as a fighter.
Despite being the favorite to win against Dubois, Joshua is not underestimating the champion, whom he has sparred with in the past. He recognizes Dubois’ strengths and is prepared for a tough battle when they face off at Wembley Stadium in front of a crowd of over 90,000 fans. Joshua is looking forward to the challenge and is determined to prove himself at the top of the division.
