Joshua: "If the money is right, I will think about giving up the rematch with Usyk"

Andrew Karlov Nov. 29, 2021, 6:31 a.m.

Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22 KO) said in an interview with IFL TV that he does not intend to give up his seat to Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KO) in line for a fight with Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs). However, the Briton added that he does not exclude such a scenario and, possibly, will consider the offer of “payoffs” from the “King of the Gypsies” camp.

“If the money is right, we'll see. But respect is worth much more than money,” said AJ.

Joshua lost his WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts to Usyk in September, but is contractually eligible for revenge. Fury, the WBC title holder, hopes to unite with Usyk, and persuades his fellow countryman to postpone the rematch for a while.
