Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has incredible strength compared to other heavyweights. Although Joshua has not finished an opponent since his fight with Kubrat Pulev in 2020, his latest video is enough to reaffirm his prowess.

Anthony Joshua has struggled in the last few years against tough opposition. Although AJ is coming off a win against Jermain Franklin, he lost his undisputed title twice against Oleksandr Usyk and Andy Ruiz. However, things are looking great for Anthony as he might potentially fight Deontay Wilder in the near future. The former world champion is training with coach Derrick James and undergoing intense training sessions. Joshua recently uploaded his training footage on Twitter, where he displayed his strength while chopping wood.

However, almost four strikes in, Joshua struck so hard he broke the head of the axe and left it impaled in the wood. Joshua later confirmed that his teammates treated it like a usual occurrence.” “That’s four now,” said the former world heavyweight champion as he bragged about his strength. This is not the first time Joshua has displayed his strength on camera. He lifted a van partially so a random kid could retrieve his football.

Joshua remains in Texas to prepare for his next fight in August. According to promoter Eddie Hearn, the bout will most likely be against his former opponent Dillan Whyte. The WBC champion Tyson Fury offered a rough contract draft to fight Joshua, but he laughed it off. If Joshua manages to defeat his next opponent, he will be on his way to a super-fight against Deontay Wilder in December.

The WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury made a proposition to Joshua. After his fight with Oleksandr Usyk failed to materialize, The Gypsy King sought his next prominent opponent. Fury recently had a huge back-and-forth with UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones to determine who’s the “baddest man on the planet.”

Fury also visited Australia to look for a venue for his next super fight. While in Australia, reports emerged that he was in talks with Demsey McKean and Jai Opetaia for a fight. With all the confusion around Tyson’s next opponent, he also sent Joshua a rough contract for a super fight in Wembley Stadium. Due to this, Joshua found it very hard to believe Tyson Fury actually wanted to fight him.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn also revealed that AJ did not take the offer seriously. Aside from the potential fight with Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua is already preparing for a bout in August. Although the opponent is not yet revealed, he might fight Deontay Wilder in December after the August fight if both parties agree on a contract.
