Anthony Joshua has said he would be ready to fight world champion, Tyson Fury in December 2022.

The British boxer was responding to a public challenge on Monday for a ‘Battle of Britain’.

Joshua lost his title rematch last month in Saudi Arabia to Ukraine’s WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO champion Oleksandr Usyk.

But the 32-year-old is eager to return to the ring before the end of the year.

“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,” Fury said.

Joshua responded by saying he would be ready to fight if Fury stuck to his word.

“I don’t do online discussions just for clout.

“So if you’re really about it, shout @258mgt (Joshua’s management company). I’ll be ready in December,” Joshua wrote on an Instagram story.

Fury will bury Joshua future in boxing .Fury is a masterclass in the art .It is not advisable for Joshua to even think of going into a mega fight after a back to back defeat to uysk .Joshua management team ain’t doing him any good . Joshua need some fights to change public opinion about his mental strength,he needs to get some victories to reinstate himself back to the championship mindset .Infact , if he had listened to almost all former heavyweight champions, he wouldn’t have immediately triggered the rematch clause with uysk but Joshua impatient caused him to rush into that rematch and ofcourse, defeat was eminent. Uysk just coming out of victory plus the war in Ukraine gave uysk the  die-in the ring mentality . If Joshua had relaxed and take some other fights to postpone the rematch ,it could have been different .And now ,he’s going into another major defeat that may eventually forced his retirement from the sport .

The type of training being given to Joshua is the main problem of his recent defeats. He prefers to hang his right hand while throwing jabs with his left hand and thereby throwing few punches. A true champion is expected to be aggressive and keeps.on throwing multiple punches per minutes. He has the power but not really an intelligent boxer

Thank you ! Joshua is a scary fighter from the Ruiz defeat . That first defeat of his career was to determined his reign as a champion and since that defeat Joshua confidence was eroded.The fact is Joshua is an amateur boxer but boxing has been extremely fair to him ,even more than those boxers that had over 400 or more amateur fights before turning pro .Joshua only had 7 amateur fights before becoming a pro and that says it all .

If you ever get up in the morning or the beginning of a year , it would be better you avoid crossing a path with Buhari ,And if by inevitable means then I you would be better stay home the whole long day or avoid stepping out of your door the entire calendar year Caz Buhari is a nemesis .The unwanted guest in our country is Buhari
