Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua
Tyson Fury has sent a new challenge for Anthony Joshua and has asked the former champ for a fight. Right after the title rematch between AJ and Oleksandr Usyk, Fury announced on Twitter that he has decided to come back from retirement. While many fight fans already had expected, nobody thought it would be so early.
After Fury made that tweet, it became clear that the much-awaited heavyweight title unification bout, Usyk vs Fury will finally take place.
Usyk was ready for the fight, however, the Ukrainian wants to take some time and most probably fight next year. But on the other hand, Fury is a little bit restless about his comeback and wants to fight this year. This has opened up opportunities for some new match-ups that are equally exciting.
