I think most people assumed that Anthony Joshua’s boxing career was over after he lost to Oleksander Usyk a few weeks ago, but he’s been thrown a life line by long time rival Tyson Fury.

Fury was expected to fight Usyk next to finally unify all of the world championships, but Usyk apparently isn’t ready to fight again this year and Fury is desperate to get in the ring before 2023 – that’s where Anthony Joshua comes in. Fury challenged Joshua on his Twitter account, saying the following:

I think you’ve all heard that I’m going to be fighting soon within the next few months.
I think that before I announce an opponent that I need to do this just in case.
Anthony Joshua, I know you’ve just lost a fight to Usyk and you’re bout-less at the moment, and I’d like to give you an opportunity to fight me for the WBC heavyweight championship of the world and the lineal championship in the next few months.
You’re coming off a 12-round fight, so you’re match fit, you’re ready. I’m giving you a few months’ notice.
If you’re interested I’ll send you the date over and we can rumble. A battle of Britain for the WBC heavyweight championship of the world.
Let me know if you’re interested, if not I will select another opponent.
Big news hey? I think Joshua would be an absolute idiot not to take that fight at this point, so it looks like we might finally get to see the boxing match between them that has been teased for years. Will be an absolutely huge day for the sport. Can’t wait.
For more of the same, check out Fury saying that his success is all down to him masturbating seven times a day. Sure?
