Anthony Joshua details Fury vs. Usyk: The winner is clear in advance, the quality gap is too big

Anthony Joshua is convinced that Tyson Fury is just a purely average boxer who has not yet met proper competition in his career.

It’s already kind of wedged into it and you couldn’t say that it’s just some form of trash talk. Anthony Joshua almost despises his countryman, whom he wished to raise himself in the ring. However, he did not get the opportunity to do so, and he fears that after the fight on May 18th, he won’t even get it again.

“I’ve always wanted to fight Tyson to show everyone that he’s just playing for the good, but I haven’t had that luck so far and I’m afraid I won’t have it again. Oleksandr Usyk is technically much better, so I expect him to beat Tyson.” assumes Joshua.

“In my opinion, Fury has major flaws as a professional boxer, which were just not that visible because he only faced one really experienced boxer, and that was Wladimir Klitschko. Deontay Wilder is the second big name on his list, but he’s always been a one-trick pony. However, even Deontay never faced a quality opponent to prove his qualities. And when he met someone better, we could see that he could eliminate his KO power.” stated.

“So my tip is that if Fury doesn’t run away yet, then Usyk will technically run him over. Of course, I was hoping that I would get the honor because the fans would certainly enjoy our match, but over the years I’ve learned that you can’t have everything you want. I can’t deny Tyson his resilience, that he tries to get back to his feet whenever he can, but the truth also remains that he has been sent on his ass by many mediocre boxers. And Usyk, on the other hand, is the most technically gifted opponent I’ve ever faced,” was Joshua’s prediction, which he told the talkSPORT server.
