Tyson Fury Targets Anthony Joshua After Comeback Fight

Tyson Fury, the 37-year-old British heavyweight boxer, is set to face Arslanbek Makhmudov in a comeback fight at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, marking his return after a 16-month hiatus. Following this bout, Fury expressed a strong desire to fight his long-time rival, Anthony Joshua, who is 36 and last competed in December, defeating Jake Paul in the sixth round of a sanctioned professional contest.

Despite Joshua's recent involvement in a car crash in Nigeria, he is expected to be ringside for Fury's fight. Promoter Eddie Hearn has suggested that Joshua is nearing a return to training, despite both fighters being in the twilight of their careers.

Fury remains unfazed by Joshua's recent activities, emphasizing his readiness for a match against Joshua, which would be a significant event in British boxing history.
