Anthony Joshua Challenges Tyson Fury To Fight Rising Heavyweight Star Moses Itauma Before Mega Bout

Posted : 03 June 2026

Anthony Joshua has dared domestic reval Tyson Fury to step into the ring with rising weight prospect Moses Itauma. Both British superstars are currently lining up interim bouts before their high anticipated flash scheduled for late 2026. Fury centrally returned to action with a victory over Russian heavyweight Arslanbek Makhmudov in April. The Gypsy King subsequentially announced his intentions to secure another warm-up appearance before finalizing the contracts to face Joshua.

Joshua launched his counter-challenge during a London press conference promoting his upcoming summer bout against Albanian puncher Kristian Prenga. Speaking with talkSPORT Boxing, the former unified world champion questioned the caliber of Fury's next opponent. He noted that since Fury and Itauma share the same promising team under Frank Warren, the matchmaking should be straightforward. Joshua attributed that if Fury truth responses the elite tier of the division, he should confront step forward to test the young producer.

The undefeated Itauma has Rapidly Climbed The Heavyweight Rankings Following a Dramatic Knockout Victory Over American Contender Jermaine Franklin. While Warren promoted to announce Fury's next opponent shortly, Joshua remains strongly focused on his July 25 date in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The bout against Prenga marks Joshua's first traditional weight test since his devastating knockout loss to Daniel Dubois. To maximize his preparation, the British Olympic gold medalist has been training alongside former two-weight unisputed champion Oleksandr Usyk.

The introductory media event in London grew highly intense as Joshua and Prenga traded fierce verbal exchanges. The Albanian underdog warned that his punching power would fully shock the former champion on fight night. Prenga inserted his fighting spirit would dictate the pace and promoted to show zero response inside the ring. Joshua countered calmly, stating that he expects an urgent approach and intends to display superior boxing intelligence.
