Wilder coach: Usyk wants to wait for Fury, but Joshua is free now
Mentor of the former world champion in the American heavyweight division Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs) Malik Scott told who he would like his ward to fight in the next fight.
“I sincerely believed that Usyk would be present at the fight with Helenius, because it was said so. But Usyk has big plans for Tyson Fury. This is the business side of our sport.
If everything depended on me, then Deontay fought Anthony Joshua. Our whole team wants this fight, but for Anthony, it's about recovery now. So we're talking about who we can get. But also everything has to meet high-level boxing criteria in terms of marketing, fans and the like.

Before the fight with Helenius, I said that I want Usyk or AJ. Everything is clear with Usyk, he wants to wait for Fury, but Joshua, in my opinion, is free. I think it is available now, ”quotes a Boxing News 24 specialist.
