WATCH: Anthony Joshua’s message to Tyson Fury

Written by on 23/12/2017

Watch as Anthony Joshua discusses the prospect of fighting Tyson Fury, how his life has changed since becoming famous and what Christmas will be like with his family.

The last 12 months have taken the former Olympic champion to new heights – and now his focus is on staying there in 2018 and beyond.

After beating Wladimir Klitschko to become world champion in April, Joshua successfully defended his WBA (Super) and IBF belts against Carlos Takam six months later.

What’s next for the Brit? A deal with Joseph Parker looks to be close, while Deontay Wilder is also on his radar.

As for Fury, who has been cleared to resume his boxing career if he can get his licence back, Joshua said: “It is a fight that I’d like to see.

“But the ball is in his court – he has to get fit. I’ll stay consistent so I can’t do much more than carry on doing what I’m doing.”
