Anthony Joshua: record, next fight and profile →
Former unified heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has taken aim, again, at the two current beltholders, Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder, in a fiery interview with BT Sport. “I’ll fight Deontay Wilder in America, I’ll fight Joshua in London,” Fury said.
Tyson Fury returned to the ring in June with a win over Albania's Sefer Seferi, following nearly three years on the sidelines. Britain's Joshua, the current WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF champion, will face Alexander Povetkin in September after failing to come to an agreement with America's Wilder, the unbeaten WBC champion.
David Higgins, the promoter for Joseph Parker, believes Deontay Wilder is being unrealistic in his demands for a high stakes unification with Anthony Joshua. A few weeks ago, Wilder and Joshua were unable to reach an agreement with each other for a potential fall showdown. Joshua will now defend the WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO titles against Alexander Povetkin on September 22nd at Wembley Stadium in London.
Dillian Whyte had some choice words for Jarrell Miller, who last week had a very tense confrontation with WBO, WBA, IBO, IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua at a DAZN press event in New York. Joshua was present on American soil to promote his mandatory title fight with Alexander Povetkin on September 22 at Wembley Stadium in London.
Former WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker is looking to make a statement on Saturday night at the O2 Arena in London, where he faces top rated contender and hometown favorite Dillian Whyte. Parker is returning from suffering the first loss of his career, when he lost a twelve round unanimous decision at the hands of WBO, WBA, IBF, IBO world champion Anthony Joshua back in March in Cardiff.
Eugenics has always been a highly controversial and misunderstood science. On the one hand it has been used to breed thoroughbred race horses, cuddly best-of-show canines, high-yielding dairy cattle and disease-resistant crops. But in the 1930s a monster of a man by the name of Adolf Hitler attempted to genetically engineer a master race. We all know how that turned out.
Olympic bronze medal winner David Price believes Alexander Povetkin is not only a better fighter than Joseph Parker - he would pick the Russian boxer to knock Parker out. Parker became the only fighter to take WBO, WBA, IBF, IBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua the distance back in March in Cardiff, Wales.
If Anthony Joshua’s schedule goes according to his supposed plan, he’ll beat Alexander Povetkin on September 22 at Wembley Stadium and then get ready for a heavyweight showdown with Deontay Wilder at the same venue April 13. But if Joshua defeats Povetkin and his fight against Wilder doesn’t materialize next, Joshua gladly would face Tyson Fury
According to former world champion 'Prince' Naseem Hamed, undefeated Olympic gold medal winner Oleksandr Usyk (15-0, 11 KOs) is capable of beating the very best fighters in the heavyweight division.
WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (21-0, 20 KOs) is crossing his fingers that a deal with WBC champion Deontay Wilder (40-0, 39 KOs) can be made for next year. Joshua has a scheduled fight date, for April 13th at Wembley in London.
