AJ CLARIFIES
Anthony Joshua has shed light on who he will be fighting next, with the result of his fight tonight and Tyson Fury’s bout against Deontay Wilder determining his next opponent.
He said: “So, we both have important fights of our career, both 50-50 fights as well, which is really good for boxing at the end of the day.
“So, inevitably I’ve got a rematch clause if the worst happens. I’m not too sure what Fury’s situation is. So, if I lose, I’m fighting Usyk again, the undisputed [title fight] gets put on hold.
“If I win, I’ll fight either one of them. If Fury wins, I’ll fight Fury.
“If Wilder wins, I’ll fight Wilder.
“If Fury wins and doesn’t take the fight with me because – on his hit list, he said that he wants to fight, I think he said he wants to fight Dillian [Whyte] first or [Dereck] Chisora first, or something like that – then I’ll fight Wilder.”
