Rejoicing in Saturday's victory over Joseph Parker, Joe Joyce (15-0, 14 KOs) spoke about his position in the heavyweight division, criticizing a possible fight between Tyson Fury and Manuel Charr, which could take place after yesterday's failure of negotiations with Anthony Joshua.
“I hope my next fight will be with someone really strong. I'm not tense, because if Alexander Usyk and Tyson Fury avoid me, I will be appointed full WBO champion without a fight (Joyce won the WBO interim belt on Saturday - ed. note). I know that Dillian Whyte wants to fight me, I'm ready for it," Joyce said.
“Fury and Manuel Charr talk about me in their interviews. Most likely, it looks like Fury vs. Charr could take place. But none of the viewers will want to watch this fight. They want to see Fury fight Oleksandr Usyk, Anthony Joshua and me," the Briton added.
“I didn’t have much time to fight for the championship. Now I am 37 years old, but I am in great shape and continue to progress. I am ready to fight the best, but today I am also glad that the audience was able to fully appreciate my capabilities, ”Juggernaut summed up the topic.
