Tyson Fury will be Anthony Joshua's favorite opponent, if Joshua is confined to just one measure this year.

That's what Joshua's promoter, Eddie Hearn, said.

World champion in the heavy category of professional boxing, Joshua, must face Cubrat Pulev on June 20th at Tottenham Stadium, but it will probably be delayed because of the coronary.

If the delay is over the summer and Joshua can only box once this year, Hearn says that his boxer would like Fury to be opposed to him in the face of unification for world titles in the severe category. Joshua holds the title in three major versions, and Fury in one.

We'll make an announcement this week or beyond next week. The June 20th war will probably be postponed. We hope the postponement will be until the end of July. If you push away, we'll be in a situation for Joshua to box once this year. If that happens, he'd like to box against Tyson Fury”, Eddie Hearn said.

Fury is expected to box against Deontay Wilder at the end of the year, after taking out his champion title in February.

“The situation is not entirely in our hands. If Fury and Wilder's drivers speak and make sure Wilder wait a while, we would like to organize that war. By contract, we are obliged to face Pulev, managed by Bob Arum, just like Fury. A deal can be reached, but much depends on Wilder”.
