• Former Nigerian boxing champion Busari Ishola says he actually wants Joshua to face Tyson Fury

Two months after losing to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia, Nigerian and British boxer Anthony Joshua is reportedly eyeing a return to boxing in early 2023.

Joshua was tipped to beat Usyk in their rematch in Jeddah in August, but the 33-year-old disappointed his fans as he lost for the second time to the Ukrainian.

After his second defeat against Usyk, there were talks about Joshua facing world champion Tyson Fury, but the proposed fight talks seem to have collapsed.

There are reports that the two parties failed to agree on a date for the fight.
