Anthony Joshua was crowned the new IBF heavyweight champion of the world last Saturday night after defeating Charles Martin by knockout. Then he receives his new belt.
Joshua said, “Time To Defend This Bad Boy”
Fresh out the box Anthony was clearly excited about getting his hands on his new possession. Probably his most prised possession, something he will not want to let go without a fight!
As soon as he opened the box he said, “Let’s go champ, I like it, good stuff, I’m going to defend this bad boy.”
Joshua has been mentioned with Tyson Fury in recent days many times for a fight in the next 12 months.
Promoter Eddie Hearn said, “”Tyson Fury’s an Easy Fight for Joshua, He Knocks Him Out Convincingly”
Hearn spoke about the magnitude of a possible showdown with the two British heavyweight champions, “Now you’ve got two Brits in a unification match. It’s never happened before and it will never happen again.”
“Fury will take the fight. He doesn’t mess around. They’re going to see a million and a half, two million pay per view buys and say right! I haven’t spoken to AJ about it but in my head it’s a unification match, 50-50 split, I think the Fury’s would be on board with that, he’d deserve it because of who he’s beaten and the belts he’s got. Financially it’s huge. I don’t think Tyson Fury or Peter Fury will have problem stepping in the ring,”
Hearn said, “I think Tyson Fury’s an easy fight for Joshua. I see no problems in that fight at all. I think he knocks him out convincingly. I think he does exactly the same to him as what he did to [Charles] Martin. He’s too slow. People say [Wladimir] Klitschko couldn’t get him out, Klitschko never had the no fear policy and the speed and the power.”
Tyson Fury has said he hopes Joshua can keep winning, “I hope he has 100 defences then I can fight him and make loads of money.”
