Despite a failed unification fight, Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury are still linked with each other in the ongoing championship ride.
That said, the unified champion will have his eyes on the WBC title fight between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder on July 24. The battle would help to resurrect several matchups in the division, including a possible showdown for all four bets in the future.
Hence, Joshua has wished luck to both men. Although Deontay Wilder looks ready to avenge his loss against Tyson Fury, ‘AJ’ has passed on some unique opinions on the possible outcome to the heavyweight blockbuster. He connected with TalkSport and discussed the Fury vs Wilder 3 matchip.

Anthony Joshua said, “I don’t mind, I don’t mind. But Fury won the last one so I’ll go with Fury because you’re only as good as your last performance. Good luck to them both.”
Meanwhile, Anthony Joshua will also defend his WBA, WBO, and IBF titles against Oleksandr Usyk in a 12-rounds collision. So, the unification bout for the heavyweight belts might see some unexpected changes in its contenders.
If either Tyson Fury or Anthony Joshua lose their next fight, it would hamper an All-English clash for the undisputed championship fight.
Nevertheless, the journey would begin with Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3, which would also end one of the biggest rivalries in the heavyweight division.
While Fury is a win ahead of Wilder, Joshua has backed him to make it one better in the next month. Therefore, it sets the stage for the biggest heavyweight battle of the time.
