Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury offered boxing returns by veteran foe: ‘I’d love to get a chance…’
While Anthony Joshua remains locked in talks for a return to the ring, he and Tyson Fury have both been offered the chance to rematch a common foe in their comebacks.
Linked heavily in recent days to a lucrative fight with Jake Paul, Joshua has been sidelined since his knockout loss to Daniel Dubois last year.
As for Morecambe native Fury, the ex-WBC heavyweight champion has flip-flopped on his retirement recently. And is one of the numerous critics of Joshua’s potential fight with Paul.
But with their own prospective fight continuing to hit the skids, both Joshua and Fury have been offered a return to the ring by a familiar rival.
