Anthony Joshua has not given up on wanting to fight the fading giant Tyson Fury and is aiming for him in 2025. The two former heavyweight champions are in a situation now or never, because they are coming off losses, and both seem 100% washed in the clinical sense.
The 1% vs The Fans
Fans are blown away by the idea of the uber-rich Joshua and Fury are now fighting. They see it as pure greed because there is nothing in a match between them, except for the $100 million that is expected.
Whoever wins now between them doesn’t matter. This is a celebrity match and has nothing to do with sporting relevance. Joshua & Fury make loads of money and then do it again later in the year at Wembley in London. The winner is not going to come back and win a world title. If they fight Oleksandr Usyk again, they will lose just like before.
Let’s hope none of them are given another title because they don’t deserve it. Other heavyweights should have a chance rather than these two pampered guys.
Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) did not open his iap to say if he will take the fight with AJ next, but given his love for money, it is expected. Fury, 36, looked hellish, losing to WBA, WBC and WBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk in their December 21 rematch in Riyadh.
Fury looked like a textbook definition of a fighter, unable to pull the trigger, slow, fat, and nowhere near the guy he was years ago.
That’s not to say he was elite in his prime because he’s always been a hyped-up fighter. He has lived off the fame of his 2015 win over 39-year-old Wladimir Klitschko over the hill. Nine years ago, Fury fans made a big deal out of that win, believing the win meant something.
“I really sincerely hope so in 2025. It is a fight that completes the era in many ways. We lost the Joshua-Wilder fights. We lost the Usyk-Wilder fights because they are not aligned,” said Gareth A. Davies at the Stomping Grounds. channelThey are talking about their hopes to see the Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua “Battle of Britain” fight in 2025.
“I think if we lose Joshua-Fury from the landscape in 2025, and it doesn’t happen, it would be a bit of a travesty for British boxing fans and the heavyweight era. These guys (Fury & Joshua) have been on on a collision course for almost 10 years or maybe more than 10 years.
“I hope it happens. Of course there is, but after a couple of months, it will come back again,” said Gareth about the possibility of Fury’s retirement. “I think it will happen. I’ll go 9 out of 10 that it will happen in 2025. Wembley, please, in the summer, 90,000,” said Gareth about the Joshua-Fury British bash.
