Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) said he wants to have three professional fights next year. The first of these should be a unification fight with Oleksandr Usyk, and such a fight, according to the WBC champion, could take place in February.
“Joe Joyce is a much better opponent for us in terms of spectacular fight than Andy Ruiz,” says coach Malik Scott Deontay Wilder. - Ruiz would be more in demand because he is a former champion, but Joyce is a much tougher opponent. Joyce would easily beat Ruiz."
Joe Joyce (15-0, 14 KOs) knocked out Joseph Parker, acquired the status of a contender for the WBO heavyweight belt and is looking for new challenges. Joyce wants to fight Oleksandr Usyk now, but it looks like he won't mind a fight with Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs).
American fans should be excited about the return of Deontay Wilder, but his natural heavyweight replacement could soon be Jared Anderson (12-0, 12 KOs). And it is worth recognizing that the promoters of the 22-year-old boxer are taking more and more risks and constantly raising the bar.

However, stormy negotiations with Tyson Fury failed first, and thus the date of December 3rd was ruled out, and then the fight plan with Otto Wallin or Chris Arreola for December 17th failed.
Mauricio Suleiman confirms that the World Boxing Council (WBC) will schedule a fight in the near future Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs) and Andy Ruiz Jr. (35-2, 22 KOs) as the final eliminator for the world heavyweight title.
