Anthony Joshua wants to fight Deontay Wilder.

Joshua currently reigns as the IBF, WBA, WBO, and IBO world heavyweight champion of boxing. However, there’s one belt missing from his collection – and it’s around Wilder’s waist. The WBC heavyweight crown rests comfortably on the head of “The Bronze Bomber.” Wilder has been itching to get his hands on the Englishman for quite some time.

Recently, Joshua joined ESPN’s “First Take” and was asked about a potential match-up with Wilder. Joshua said the fight would have to be in England, Wilder’s financial demands would have to be realistic, and he’s eying an April date (via Boxing Scene):

“My situation is that [Wilder is] saying that I won’t fight him. As I’ve said, I’m willing to fight Deontay Wilder on April 13th in London, so I don’t know what more I have to do to get that message across. He’s more interested in fighting Tyson Fury. Tyson Fury holds no world titles,” Joshua said.

“Let me say this, I can’t control what Deontay Wilder or what Tyson Fury does or even as far as what they say – but what I can control is what I say and what I’m doing.

“I made sure with the negotiations, I’ve booked the date in advance, set the venue in advance, and I’m making my point clear in front of everyone watching that I’m willing to fight any one of these guys – especially Deontay Wilder on April 13th at Wembley. What more can I say?”

Joshua’s sudden interest likely comes after seeing Wilder go 12 rounds with Tyson Fury. Wilder defended his WBC heavyweight title against “The Gypsy King” earlier this month. Many believe Fury got the better of Wilder technically, however, the American scored the only two knockdowns of the fight. With that being said, the judges turned in a controversial split decision draw.

Many believe Fury should’ve gotten the nod, but it’s also believed some holes in Wilder’s game were exposed. One thing can’t be denied – Wilder has the power to finish the fight no matter what round it’s in. Just look at his 12th round knockdown of Fury, for example, which arguably could’ve been ruled a knockout.

Regardless, should Joshua and Wilder find themselves booked in a colossal heavyweight match-up in 2019, both men will certainly have their hands full.

The argument for the hevyweight division’s top dog continues. Currently, Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, and Tyson Fury can all make a case for being the baddest man in boxing.

Recently, Wilder defended his WBC heavyweight title against Fury from the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The pair fought all 12 rounds and the judges turned in a controversial split-decision draw. Fury is believed to have gotten the better of Wilder for the majority of the 12 rounds. However, Wilder scored the only two knockdowns of the entire fight.

Not to mention the second knockdown from Wilder could’ve arguably been ruled a knockout. With that being said, talk of a rematch is already underway. Recently, Wilder joined longtime UFC commentator Joe Rogan’s podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience.” The pair discussed Wilder’s grueling fight with Fury, and what’s next for “The Bronze Bomber.”

During their conversation, the topic of fellow heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua came up. Joshua currently holds the IBF, WBA, WBO, and IBO world heavyweight titles. However, many boxing pundits assume Joshua is ducking the likes of Wilder and Fury. Rogan chimed in on the subject (via MMA Mania):

“He looks terrible. He’s gonna fight some other guy, and no one gives a fuck. And it’s like, your titles, whatever titles you got, they’re bullshit! They don’t mean anything! Everybody knows this is where the real title is! It’s a wrap now.”

Wilder then revealed that Joshua’s team has already reached out to him about possibly making a fight between the pair. Prior to agreeing to fight Fury, Wilder had been calling Joshua out for months, and failed negotiations between the two sides prevented a fight from being booked.

Now, after seeing Wilder face Fury – a fight where many presume some major holes in Wilder’s game were revealed – Joshua seems very eager to get a fight going.

Anthony Joshua is finally intrigued.

Recently, WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury went a full 12 rounds in an amazing heavyweight contest. Fury seemingly bested Wilder technically for the majority of the fight, however, Wilder landed the only two knockdowns of the contest. “The Bronze Bomber’s” second knockdown very well could’ve been ruled a knockout.

However, Fury made it to his feet and was able to survive. When it was all said and done, the judges’ scorecards turned in a controversial split decision draw. A rematch is now being discussed for the spring of next year. But it looks like IBF, WBA, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua wants in on the mix.

His promoter, Eddie Hearn, spoke to The Sun recently and expressed his desire for a fight against Deontay Wilder specifically. Hearn went as far as saying he thinks Joshua would knock Wilder clean out (via Boxing Scene):

“Joshua would be a lot easier to hit (than Fury) but I also think Joshua would take (Wilder) off his feet and knock him spark out,” Hearn said. “If Josh fights Tyson it’s going to be the most amazing event but it’s also going to be quite an awkward night.

“If he fights Wilder it’s going to be X-rated because someone’s head is getting taken off – If that goes 12 rounds, Joshua against Wilder, I’m quitting the sport. Because that’s ridiculous, that’s not possible. We want Wilder. That’s the difference.

“I think if it was man on man and there were no belts, nothing, I think Joshua would probably prefer Fury. There’s always been the ‘oh he was the champ, you won his belts’ and stuff like that so maybe that’s in his head a little bit but he wants to be undisputed.’

“I think in the back of his mind, he wants to do a job on Fury as well. He wants to do a job on both of them and he’s going to violently do that.”

Wilder had been chasing a fight against Joshua for months before accepting a fight with Fury. However, the two sides could never come to an agreement, and most boxing pundits blame Joshua’s side for the hold up. Now, Joshua seems eager to get the fight done, and it’s likely because he spotted some major flaws in Wilder’s game against Fury.
