“I’ll challenge Fury, I’ll challenge Wilder. These guys aren’t the biggest names that I’ve fought on my record anyway. They are just another heavyweight. Look at my record. They are not the best fighters that I have challenged. When they are ready, I’m here to fight.”

Moreover, he said that his swift rise in the boxing world has proven his skills to be superior. Anthony Joshua is of the belief that Tyson Fury has one foot out of the door, given his mileage as a heavyweight boxer.

“I came up quick. That shows I’m ready. These boys turned professional in 2008 and it took [Fury seven years] to fight for the heavyweight championship of the world.”

Anthony Joshua has his hands full with mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev, who is preparing to disrupt the heavyweight title picture. The Englishman recently bounced back from a shock loss to Andy Ruiz Jr. and will be keen to maintain an upward trajectory. Additionally, Fury and Deontay Wilder have a score to settle inside the ring.
