Joshua Links Up With Usyk as Fury Win Rekindles Talks for November Fight

The unlikely alliance is energising Joshua’s comeback.

Overview

  • Anthony Joshua has been training with Oleksandr Usyk at the Ukrainian’s camp near Valencia, with promoter Eddie Hearn calling the sessions an “unbelievable lift.”
  • Negotiations are exploring a Joshua–Tyson Fury fight in November at Wembley, with Hearn saying Joshua is likely to take a July tune‑up first.
  • Fury beat Arslanbek Makhmudov by unanimous decision at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, then called out Joshua, who gave a cautious response after a recent serious car incident.
  • Under British Boxing Board of Control rules, Fury and Makhmudov face a routine six‑day post‑fight suspension, which pauses any immediate ring plans.
  • Usyk, who owns two decision wins over both heavyweights, is backing Joshua to beat Fury and says he is focused on his own three‑fight plan rather than an immediate Fury trilogy.
