Joshua boasts he will beat Joyce, Willian
Though Joshua is billed to face Usyk who stunned him last September, it is unclear when the Ukrainian will be ready to return to the ring.
Nigeria born British boxer Anthony Joshua is looking for a new opponent with his rematch against Oleksandr Usyk in doubt after the Ukrainian returned home to help fight against Russia's invasion.
Sounding so confident, Joshua said on Wednesday "I boxed Otto Wallin twice as youngsters &and I boxed Joe Joyce and stopped him in 1 round. I'd do the same thing today!"
Joshua was reacting to the possibility of fighting Wallian or Joyce. The Nigeria born boxer activated a rematch clause to fight again for the WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles after Usyk stunned him last September, but it is unclear when the Ukrainian will be ready to return to the ring.
Responding on Wednesday to posts on Twitter, Joshua dismissed the chances both Joyce and fellow heavyweight Otto Wallin would have against him, pointing to victories he had over both of them at the amateur level.
Joshua wrote: "You really think I wouldn't fight @JoeJoyceBoxing?"Lol ok … I've shared this ring with most people you see in the heavyweight division today! "I boxed Otto Wallin twice as youngsters & I boxed Joe and stopped him in 1 round. I'd do the same thing today! Ain't nothing changed."
