Anthony Joshua in December will have the mandatory IBF heavyweight title defense against Kubrat Pulev, and if he wins, the Briton intends to fight Tyson Fury for all belts and the overall champion title in 2021.
Only Alexander Usik stands in the way, who is a mandatory contender for the WBO belt, Joshua. Promoter Eddie Hearn hopes Joshua will manage to avoid a fight with Usyk for now.
“If Usyk defeats Chisora and Joshua defeats Pulev, then the rules state that Anthony must fight Alexander. But we are ready to go to the WBO and ask them to postpone the defense with Usyk, because Joshua wants to fight Fury for all the belts, for the title of absolute champion. “
“If the WBO refuses, then we are ready to turn to Usyk to allow the Joshua-Fury fight sometime in April.”
“I think everyone really wants to see Joshua – Fury fight for 4 belts. This is important to Anthony, ”Hearn said.
Usyk himself makes it clear that he does not intend to wait long.
Previously, Fury and Joshua agreed on all financial terms for two fights in 2021.
