Anthony Joshua Declares Himself the Best in British Heavyweight Boxing

The landscape of heavyweight boxing in the United Kingdom has undergone a significant shift, with British fighters reclaiming their dominance in the division. Led by the likes of Tyson Fury, Daniel Dubois, Joe Joyce, and Dillian Whyte, British boxers have reasserted their presence on the global stage once dominated by the Americans.

"I am the top heavyweight in the UK," asserts Joshua

At the forefront of this resurgence is Tyson Fury, who has solidified his position as the top heavyweight in the world with notable victories over Deontay Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko. However, Anthony Joshua, another formidable British contender, vehemently contests Fury's claim to the throne, declaring himself as the top heavyweight in the UK.

"I am the top heavyweight in the UK," asserted Joshua in a recent press conference, setting the stage for an intense rivalry between the two champions.

The upcoming months promise to settle the debate as Fury prepares to face Oleksandr Usyk for a shot at the undisputed heavyweight title, with the loser likely to exercise their rematch clause. Meanwhile, Joshua has his sights set on a showdown with Francis Ngannou on March 8th, with plans to challenge the winner of Fury vs. Usyk.

While Joshua's ambitions are focused on domestic supremacy, he remains mindful of the formidable competition beyond British shores. Fighters such as Zhilei Zhang of China, Filip Hrgovic of Croatia, and Jared Anderson of the United States are all looming threats in the heavyweight division. However, Joshua remains steadfast in his determination to conquer the UK before considering global domination.
