Anthony Joshua: Fight With Tyson Fury Needs ‘A Bit of Time’

The heavyweight stalwart, Anthony Joshua, proved his worth against Kubrat Pulev on December 12. He put one of the most complete performances of his career to bag a T/KO win. Post that win, he is now officially in contention to take on the mighty Tyson Fury.

Joshua recently shed some light on tentative dates for this epic clash.

“The next fight I want is Tyson Fury, for the undisputed championship of the world…I think maybe (it happens) in June. It needs a bit of time. (But) I promise you conversations and face-to-face meetings are happening with representatives of my team and Fury’s team.”

‘AJ’ seems equally pumped as his fans to enter the boxing ring against the ‘Gypsy King’.

The combat sports universe cites this battle as the best heavyweight clash of the decade. It will determine the face of modern-day boxing. As many presume this war to happen by mid-2021, Joshua put his own assumptions for this fight, which turned true to many fans’ expectations.

Joshua even admitted that this fight will need time as their promotions need to sit together and iron out all the possible stuff for this fight.

Both the fighters are extremely keen to take each other on next. For now, this is the most talked-upon bouts in boxing. Given the two biggest names of the sport, this fight has the audacity to sell itself.
