Interestingly, Fury also inflicted defeat on Wilder twice with the American nicely beaten.

According to the report on Complete Sports, the 36-year-old American explained that he wants to face Joshua in Africa since both of them are blacks.

This comes less than two months after the two-time former world heavyweight champion lost his rematch with Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Joshua looked dapper in his black suit, a neat white shirt and a black bow tie, also sporting a pair of glasses.

He continues to be proud of his Nigerian roots, as the country is outlined on a tattoo of Africa on his right shoulder.

Joshua identified with his fatherland once again by attending the BOA Awards, that celebrates personalities of African and pan-African heritage. At the event, he scooped an award and was able to meet several big names whose ancestry can be traced to Africa.
