Anthony ready to take on WBC title
Former World Champion Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) responded to the WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs), who turned to his compatriot with a proposal to hold a face-to-face fight.
“Calmly. I don’t do online discussions just for influence, so if you’re really screaming about it, I’ll be ready in December.”
Fury approached Anthony Joshua twice yesterday and offered him a face-to-face fight. Tyson also stressed that he was ready to provide a chance for Anthony to take possession of the WBC belt.
On August 20, Joshua lost a split decision to Ukrainian boxer, WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO heavyweight champion Alexander Usik in a rematch.
Joshua is ready to return to the ring this year with any opponent. Briton promoter Eddie Hearn announced his readiness to arrange a fight for Anthony in November-December, and also expressed confidence in Joshua’s three or four fights in 2023.
