The WBC champion decided not to go further, but chose countryman Joe Joyce.
Tyson Fury named the second, in his opinion, heavyweight in the world. The WBC champion modestly raised himself to the top.
Note that the selection was somewhat unexpected, as it fell to Fury’s compatriot Joe Joyce. According to the champion, one day they will also meet in the ring and find out who is better.
“I spent a good day watching boxing, watching all the big fights and studying all the heavyweights. I have to say that the great Joe Joyce is the best heavyweight fighter in the world after me.
Who knows if he can beat me or not. I think we need to know. I just looked at all these contenders for world titles. Zhang, Hrgovic and all the others.
I think the great Joe Joyce is the #2 heavyweight in the world. Who knows if he’s #1? One day we will have to find out which of us is better.
But right now, I reign because I’m the heavyweight champion of the world and he’s not. But he’s coming for all the belts, don’t worry. Come on, great Joe,” Fury was quoted as saying by Boxing News 24.
We remind you, Joe Joyce previously challenged Ukrainian champion Oleksandr Usyk.
