ANTHONY JOSHUA will fight Tyson Fury if he loses the high-stakes rematch against Oleksandr Usyk.
If Joshua defeats the slick southpaw during their Saudi showdown, which will take place over the next fortnight, a multi-million-pound Battle of Britain is in the cards.
Anthony Joshua will face Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia this month.
Joshua was turned by Usyk during their Tottenham tussle last September
AJ still hopes to face Tyson Fury, a fellow Brit, if he loses again to the Ukranian
The 32-year-old Watford fighter won't stop fighting for the greatest fight in British boxing history if he gets his hands dirty in the desert.
Eddie Hearn, promoter of DAZN Boxing Show, said that AJ would be next to fight Tyson Fury.
Activity is the key to AJ's success. He was unable to do so because of the sheer size of his fights. He wants to fight in December, win or lose against Usyk.
"A victory would bring him to the undisputed battle against Tyson Fury," I believe.

"It's the largest fight in boxing, and the greatest fight of all time."
Joshua, 32, was defeated by Usyk in Tottenham's tussle last September. He has now hired Robert Garcia, a world champion coach, to help him beat Usyk the second time.
Hearn stated: "I think Joshua is confident about his gameplan, he knows what he has to do, and I believe he's in great shape."
He is aware of the past mistakes and knows that he has to correct them. But he is very confident.

Joshua will be a three-time champion in heavyweight with a victory in the desert. However, he won't keep the belts high for too long.
JD Sports interviewed him: "I don't feel like I am being viewed as a dominant heavyweight in this division."
"This big Anthony Joshua wins, becomes three times, I'm gonna dash these belts.
"Because I'm a person, you have to learn to respect me." This is what I meant. I am tired and don't want to get respected for the belts that I have.
"I want to be respected because you see the man I see."
