Anthony Joshua is hoping to get a much-anticipated fight with Tyson Fury at some point down the line and has now revealed where he would be willing to fight the current WBC world champion.
Joshua and Fury have long been on a collision course to fight one another although it has often been frustrating that the two have not as of yet actually managed to agree on terms for what would be a massive contest.
Right now though it seems like they are closer than ever with Joshua having dispatched two of Fury’s former foes in impressive fashion in his last two fights.
The first was Otto Wallin back in December who retired between rounds after taking heavy punishment, and the second in Francis Ngannou who was knocked out old inside two rounds last weekend.
Both of those men pushed Fury hard over the full distance and only narrowly lost on points to Fury when he fought them.
Fury is next out on May 18 in an epic battle of the ages when he challenges Oleksandr Usyk for all four belts and the undisputed world heavyweight title in Saudi Arabia. Should he come through that it is hoped he and Joshua could fight next later in the year.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Joshua has mused on where that fight might happen.
“It’s really up to them. I’m only a Tweet away. I’ll fight him his back garden. It don’t matter to me. Wherever, whenever, however, it don’t matter. I just want to deliver for the fans.”
It’s good news for negotiations that Joshua seems willing to take the fight anywhere.
