Joshua’s Bold Prediction: Usyk Edges Fury in Heavyweight Showdown

Posted on January 16, 2024

In a highly anticipated showdown, Anthony Joshua is gearing up to face former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou on March 8 in Saudi Arabia. The stakes are high, as the winner could potentially earn a shot at the victor of the undisputed clash between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk on February 17.

Despite Joshua tipping Usyk to edge out Fury in their upcoming bout, he expresses a preference to face Fury in the future. Joshua, a two-time world champion, faced a setback in 2021 when he lost his WBO, IBF, and WBA belts to Usyk, who then secured a rematch victory the following year. However, Joshua has never squared off against WBC champion Fury.

Reflecting on the upcoming Fury-Usyk clash, Joshua remains focused on the health and well-being of both fighters, emphasizing the toughness of the sport. “I just want them both to be healthy and leave the ring,” he states, acknowledging the challenges of the game.

In terms of potential matchups, Joshua reveals his inclination towards facing Tyson Fury, deeming it a more appealing fight for both fans and himself. This preference sets the stage for a potential blockbuster bout between the two British heavyweights.

Joshua’s upcoming fight against Ngannou follows his impressive victory over Otto Wallin in December, where he showcased a dominant performance. Wallin had previously pushed Fury to the limit in 2019, making Joshua’s triumph even more significant.

Ngannou, on the other hand, almost pulled off a major upset in his professional boxing debut against Fury, losing via a controversial split decision in October. As Joshua prepares for this clash, he downplays the idea of trying to outperform Fury’s previous displays against shared opponents, emphasizing the distinct styles and approaches each fighter brings to the ring.

As the March 8 showdown approaches, the boxing world awaits the outcome of these pivotal matchups, with the possibility of a Joshua-Fury encounter adding an extra layer of excitement to the heavyweight division.
