“Usyk always cared for just fighting the best and creating a enduring legacy in great boxing sport. But in the future, because they solidify their place more as one of the real great fighters, we will see what other possibilities open for him. It may be great to get into the cage with Jake Paul under the rules of MMA, it would be captivating. Dana White.

“Transferring data to boxing can open the door to more fights between boxers and the current UFC stars. He is a talented guy, and thanks to Turk’s abilities they would create a very captivating project.

However, the “brown bomber” returns to the action and will want to discover a part of the form in which he collected 42 knockout from 43 duels.

Anthony Joshua syndrome in a misunderstanding of how Oleksandr Usyk sent a warning

Published

on

Anthony Joshua’s team is challenging to decide on another boxer opponent in the ring, with two main members of his facilities in a misunderstanding on the next fight. Joshua loudly noisy about his desire to fight the retired Tyson Fury after the defeat of the British from Oleksandr Usyk, but coach Ben Davison would prefer to take part in Ukrainians instead.

On the other hand, the supervisor of Joshua, Eddie Hearn, wants a 35-year-old to make Daniel Dubois rematch or pull a fury from his pension. Recently, Joshua was knocked out by Dubois in September 2024 in order to win the IBF heavyweight title and has not yet returned to the ring for the next fight. Hearn confirmed at the beginning of this year that the former world champion is recovering after a “slight failure” during training, but the waiting still increases in his upcoming announcement of the fight. Davison said Boxing scene That he would like to “fix everything” for Joshua, training him to defeat Usyk, after the Ukrainian won all the heavyweight titles of the British heavyweight during the previous two fights.

Usyk won the heavyweight titles WBA (Super), IBF, WBO and IBO from Joshua in 2021 and kept them – plus the title of the ring – a year later in August 2022. “Being selfish, I would really like to put this fight with Usyk suitable for him,” Davison said before he gave a warning to the master.

“I don’t know if it is feasible at all. But this is something that I would like to assist him. This is something that I told him when I came to the gym, that I am really convinced that we will be able to assist him fix him.”

Meanwhile, the promoter Hearn is in another school of thinking – he would rather make fury after retiring or established a rematch with the last man who knocked down Joshua to the ring. The 45-year-old surprisingly noticed that Joseph Parker could be another duel for the British if the first two are not available.

Said Hearn (by Si.com): “So if he doesn’t fight one of these two guys, he must fight someone and he will want to fight someone in the top ten. And Joseph Parker is now on one of the hottest runs. I mean that if Dubois does not fight Usyk, I would like to see how Dubois is also fighting with a parker, and I think Joe deserves the title of the world.

“But of course, if there is a enormous struggle of unification for the undisputed, Joe will need another dance partner, or maybe it’s a rematch of Joshua.”

When Dubois is to fight the Parker through WBO to defend his title, and Usyk, whose goal is also the IBF heavyweight holder, the next fight of Joshua still remains uncertain. However, fans will continue to predict what will happen next for the former heavyweight master – regardless of the opponent.
