In a recent interview with DAZN, Anthony Joshua made bold statements about his past dominance over Tyson Fury during their amateur boxing days. Joshua asserted that Fury’s skill level at the time was significantly below his own, emphasizing differences in genetics, strength, and mindset between them.
“Fury’s level was only at my waist,” Joshua remarked. “We are completely different in terms of genetics, power, and mentality. I sparred with Fury back when he used to come down to Finchley in the amateur ranks.”
Joshua highlighted a perceived disparity in trajectory, suggesting he consistently operated on a higher level than Fury during their formative years. While acknowledging Fury’s achievements in the sport, Joshua expressed confidence in his ability to showcase superiority if given the opportunity to face Fury in a professional bout.
“Give me a chance to fight Fury, and I’ll show you what I’m talking about,” Joshua asserted confidently.
The comments have sparked debate among boxing enthusiasts, with many weighing in on Joshua’s claims and the potential implications for a future showdown between the two heavyweight champions. As both fighters continue to dominate headlines in the boxing world, Joshua’s assertions add an intriguing layer to the ongoing narrative of potential matchups and rivalries in the sport.
