Anthony Joshua Waits in the Wings for Tyson Fury-Oleksandr Usyk to Play Out

On Friday’s episode of ProBox TV’s “Deep Waters,” analyst Paulie Malignaggi says Tyson Fury is an all-time great heavyweight when his mind is right. But he questions whether that will be the case when Fury takes on Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight title on May 18 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The “Deep Waters” crew weighs Fury’s legacy, Usyk’s rightful place among the heavyweights and where Anthony Joshua fits in.

Earlier this week, Fury declared at a news conference to promote the fight that he’s positioned to become the best heavyweight of his era by defeating Oleksandr Usyk, the unbeaten former undisputed cruiserweight champion from Ukraine. That was the lead discussion point on Friday’s episode of ProBox TV’s “Deep Waters.”

Asked about lingering bad blood with Anthony Joshua, heavyweight champ Tyson Fury claimed he would take his rival out for "a beer and a jam sandwich" – but that he currently has bigger fish to fry against Oleksandr Usyk.

Tyson Fury’s trainer SugarHill Steward will change some of their tactics ahead of the undisputed heavyweight title fight with Oleksandr Usyk off the back of comments made by Usyk’s promoter Alex Krassyuk.

Heavyweight up-and-comer Jared Anderson knows he has made mistakes, but he says he is ready to put them behind him – starting with a win over Ryad Merhy on Saturday and, eventually, a crack at former titleholder Deontay Wilder.

Oleksandr Usyk anticipates a different fighter for his May 18 date in Saudi Arabia than the Tyson Fury who fought Francis Ngannou last October.

Anthony Joshua thinks his next fight will be in September, but he would prefer an earlier return.
