Joshua: I Want To Fight Fury And Wilder Before The End Of 2023 by SReporters: 9:42am On Feb 01, 2023
Anthony Joshua, a British-Nigerian boxer, has stated that he would like to fight both Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder before the end of 2023.

After losing three of his last five fights, including two to Oleksandr Usyk, the former two-time unified heavyweight champion is rebuilding his career. The boxer is also thinking about moving his training camp to the United States for a change of scenery.

Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, is planning a ring return for Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) on April 1. Jermaine Franklin, a long-time contender, is the most likely opponent.

"Finding an opponent to fight me won't be difficult," Joshua told IFL TV.

If Joshua survives his return fight, he intends to return to the top of the division with a big fight.

"In 2023, Fury or Deontay Wilder, both will be good and difficult nights' work." But 2023 is "Furious or Wilder—or possibly both."

Joshua's fans want him to win again.
Throughout the years, Joshua has been in talks to face Wilder and Fury.

Over the last few years, Joshua's team has made significant progress in negotiating with Fury's team, but the initial interest has always ended in failure due to a variety of factors.

When asked if the chances of a Fury fight were over, Joshua remained optimistic about the possibility of a super fight.

"In my heart, no it isn't over. But, if you listen to Fury, it's up and down. But I'm confident he'll fight me. I doubt his father will let him not fight me. I like his father because he is a proper gentleman. So, yeah," Joshua replied. Hearn has also stated that he wants Joshua to fight three times this year, with Dillian Whyte as an opponent in the summer and Wilder following that.

Joshua has previously stated that the Wilder vs. Joshua fight "has to happen" because they are both from the same era.

The question is…



Does fury still want to fight you?


I think he has moved past you…You weren’t man enough!


Your time is fast speeding past and now you want to fight to stay relevant…

Wilder might want to take a chance to inflict more woes on Joshua!
Just as you rightly said, Fury won't be interested to fight Joshua!! He has moved beyond that!!

Notice the way Joshua was even begging fury stylishly…

It used to be the other way round.


I don’t think even wilder will want to fight Joshua now either. Except as you rightly said just to further inflict more damage to Joshua’s career.

But I don’t think it’s worth it. Except some big money is involved!

AJ and Wilder re in the same Whatsapp group. A fight between them will take the winner back to the top. Cos both of them re psychologically, and emotionally down. Forget Wilder's gra gra, his trilogy with Fury has taken down his confidence so as Joshua's lost to Usyk has nosedived his confidence.

They need eachoda at the moment to stay relevant.

Ur first sentence gat me almost rolling on the floor. grin
I don't tink AJ himself is serious wit that " fighting Fury bullshit talk" his jux trying to get himself some sort of a moral booster. Fury is not on his level for now, that guy is a beast and on top of his game at the moment.

Buh as for the bronze bomber, he has no choice than to accept a fight from AJ. They re technically In the same boat at the moment. They were both beaten like babies and striped off their titles an pride. I blif a bout will do them both good.

And blif me, a fight between them still has the tendency of generating some insane money. Many boxing enthusiasts around the globe still wish to see a fight betwn Wilder and AJ.

Lol at beaten like babies…


What’s left is just to give them both feeding bottles grin

You right also about both of them been in the same group chat grin

Although I think wilder has a slight advantage. I think josh is a coward though.

You also right about a wilder vs Joshua fight being a potential hit/money spinner. Though it would be more about the money than the excitement of seeing the two slug it out in the ring. (my opinion). I don’t think it would be that great a bout. Except maybe just to put to rest the argument of who the better is between the duo.


As for fury does that mean he is unstoppable for now? Like in a class of his own?

I still think this era hasn’t produced great heavy weights though as compared to past champions. I mean imagine if the heavy weights of this era were to take on those of older eras. The best now would easily be beaten “ like babies” by probably a Holyfield, Lennox Lewis or even a Tyson (iron mike) would easily knock out his namesake.😜

And I am not even talking about the golden era of Ali in his prime or the hard puncher foreman etc.


But of course that’s not taking anything from the Gypsy king the dude is good and at the moment seems unmatched.

Which Ali golden era.. lol, bro i read somewhere in an Ali interview where he said it himself that if he had faced a prime mike in his own prime also, Tyson would have him KO. Walai that Tyson was a beast.. person wey go dey use punch pursue you for ring.. Ali wey dey bounce about for don bounce run comot for ring

I don’t think Ali…

the “greatest” ever made that statement about Tyson though!


And boxing ain’t just about punches. Ali “run Comot for ring”? Ali was no coward and faced/beat all of the biggest heavyweights of his time. He never feared/dodged no opponent one of the reasons he is regarded as the greatest boxer to ever wear a glove. Because of the caliber of fighters he beat!

Run ke..? He would only dance like a butterfly and sting like a bee! He beat heavy punchers like foreman glove for glove.

I think it is Tyson on the other hand who is more likely to make such a comment. You see Ali is one of the reasons Tyson ever wore a glove. He has profound respect for Ali and regards him as a mentor even though their boxing styles are completely opposite. Ali had great influence on Tyson’s boxing career!
