Anthony Joshua has grandiose plans to play king of the hill in the heavyweight division.
Joshua (29-4, 26 KOs) is preparing to fight Kristian Prenga (20-1, 20 KOs) on July 25 in Saudi Arabia as part of DAZN’s Ultimate Plan.
The tune-up tilt is designed to be the first domino to fall in a series of mouthwatering matchups for the 36-year-old.
The next fight would be against Tyson Fury in mid-November. And if all goes well against his fellow Brit, all hell could break loose against the rest of the field.
“There's a lot more fights to happen, a lot more big fights,” Joshua told The Ring’s CEO, Rick Reeno, on the "Mr. Verzace Podcast."
“[The fight against Fury is] one of the defining fights of this era. With Fury and me, it can't be the only one because I know if I stay around long enough, there's a rematch with Daniel Dubois. There's a potential Fabio Wardley fight. There's an Agit Kabayel fight out there, providing he becomes champion. Like, how big would that be? There's a Moses Itauma fight as he's coming up the rankings. There's still the Deontay Wilder fight out there.
“These are going to be massive fights. They're all in my way. All on the same level. So, Fury is just another number, and I'm trying to say I don't put him on any pedestal. He ain't above no one. I'm not putting him above anyone.”
After Joshua survived a fatal car accident that killed two of his friends in December, 10 days after he knocked out Jake Paul, many wondered if the former two-time unified heavyweight champion would ever fight again.
But not only will Joshua fight, he plans on doing so against the best, as he revealed this month that he intends on lacing the gloves until he’s 40.
