Anthony Joshua Prepares for Fury with First-Round Knockout Plan

Anthony Joshua is preparing for a heavyweight showdown against Tyson Fury on December 11 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, streamed on Netflix as part of a Ring show. This fight marks a long-awaited meeting between the two British heavyweights after years of rivalry.

Joshua, with a record of 30 wins and 4 losses, including 27 knockouts, recently faced Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Saudi Arabia, where he was knocked down twice in the first round but ultimately won by stopping Prenga in the second round. This fight was Joshua's first since surviving a fatal car accident in December.

Reflecting on his experience against Prenga, Joshua stated that it changed his mindset about boxing, emphasizing that he intends to be more aggressive against Fury, aiming for a knockout in the first round rather than wearing his opponent down over several rounds. Tyson Fury, who holds a record of 36 wins, 2 losses, and 1 draw, stopped Mariusz Wach in Thailand the night before Joshua's fight with Prenga.

The upcoming bout will be for the vacant WBA “super” heavyweight title.
