Undefeated American heavyweight Dominic Breazeale will challenge Anthony Joshua for his IBF title at London's O2 Arena on June 25. The 30-year-old former US Olympic heavyweight was selected Monday as Joshua's opponent for his first title defence.
“Let’s not give @Anthony Joshua a hard time over his opponent, just remember he has only had 16 fights, and still learning,” Fury initially said on his Twitter on Monay. “BTW I was only [expletive] joking with you guys, AJ [Joshua] is fighting a total bum city. Eddie Hearn at it again joke, imagine if I was gonna fight Brazile (Breazeale) lol,” said Fury.
Anthony Joshua MBE will make the first defence of his IBF World Heavyweight title against unbeaten American Dominic ‘Trouble’ Breazeale at The O2 in London on June 25. Joshua ripped took both the belt and unbeaten record of American Charles Martin at the same venue on April 9, and he'll be looking to take another '0' in his maiden defence.
