Anthony Joshua has said he would be ready to fight world champion, Tyson Fury in December 2022.
The British boxer noted this while reacting to a public challenge on Monday for a ‘Battle of Britain.’
Joshua had lost his title rematch in August, in Saudi Arabia to Ukraine’s champion, Oleksandr Usyk.
However, it looks like the 32-year-old is eager to return to the ring before the end of 2022.
Fury had said, “Anthony Joshua, I know you’ve just lost a fight to Usyk and you’re bout-less at the moment, and I’d like to give you an opportunity to fight me for the WBC heavyweight championship of the world and the lineal championship in the next few months.”
Joshua responded on his Instagram story, saying he was ready to fight if Fury was serious, and not just engaging in online discussion.
“I don’t do online discussions just for clout.
“So if you’re really about it, shout @258mgt (the boxer’s management company). I’ll be ready in December.”
