Tyson Fury wants to fight Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight title unification matchup in December, following the exit of Deontay Wilder from the tale.

After teasing the trilogy fight for months, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ postponed the contest several times. Thus, Fury is left with no opponent, and he is adamant about accepting a challenge. The only man who can fill the void is the unified heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua.

Joshua and Fury are two of the biggest boxing superstars from Britain and are still untested against each other. It is no surprise that a matchup between them will allure the entire fanbase, so Tyson’s father John Fury doesn’t want to miss out on the opportunity. He has already asked Joshua to step up in December.
