British boxer Anthony Joshua, of Nigerian descent, was confirmed as world heavyweight champion after defeating 39-year-old Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev by knockout in the ninth round. Joshua is 31 years old and has kept all the belts he already had (IBF, WBA, WBO and IBO). Now, after Joshua’s victory, there is talk of a possible and highly anticipated boxing match with his compatriot Tyson Fury, current holder of the WBC world heavyweight title, like Joshua.
In the box there are several titles, awarded by the five great international federations, and the winner of a possible fight between Fury and Joshua could “reunite” them, that is, become the owner of all five at the same time, because whoever wins the holder of a title takes away that title.
Joshua is the holder of his four titles since December 2019, when he defeated Mexican Andy Ruiz on points, in a kind of rematch of a match that a few months earlier Ruiz won, who had presented himself as a loser, almost unknown and with a very physical. less athletic than Joshua’s.
