AJ was on the cusp of fighting Fury for all the titles last year but went onto lose his straps against Usyk.

Despite missing out on his dream of undisputed gold, Joshua holds no grudges towards his divisional rivals.

He told BoxingSocial: “Good luck to both of them. I wish them well. It’s something that I dreamed of, I worked hard for.

“Didn’t get the opportunity, but since they’re blessed for that opportunity, I wish them both well.”

Joshua was robbed of a unification against Fury in Saudi Arabia after the Gypsy King was ordered into a trilogy bout against Deontay Wilder.

Fury, 34, went on to knock out Wilder, 34, in their Las Vegas thriller.

But two weeks earlier, Joshua, 33, lost the WBA, IBF and WBO belts to Usyk, 36, and failed to regain them in their rematch in August.

It lines up Usyk and Fury to unify the division, while AJ returns on April 1 against Jermaine Franklin, 29.

And Joshua seemed in no mood to predict a winner between Fury and Usyk.

He said to iFL TV: “I hope they can get it on. I don’t really wanna talk about it.

“Do you know what it is? My name’s spoken about a lot, I don’t need to speak about anyone else. That’s not what a man does.

“Not on other men. Good luck to both though.”
