Why Anthony Joshua Was Knocked-Out In Fifth Round - Tyson Fury

Tyson Fury has shared his insights about Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois, noting areas where he believes both fighters could enhance their skills while expressing confidence in his boxing abilities as he prepares for his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk in December.

Tyson Fury who is fondly called ‘Gypsy King’ is gearing up to challenge Usyk for three heavyweight titles in Riyadh and has decided to stick with his unique boxing style rather than altering his approach.

In an interview with TNT, Fury emphasized the importance of maintaining his distinctive technique, saying, “I plan to approach it much like I did before, focusing on effective boxing. At my size and weight, it’s quite a feat to box and evade, so I see no reason to change that aspect of my game.”

Fury addressed common strategies suggested by fans and analysts, pointing out that if those approaches were straightforward, then fighters like Joshua and Dubois might have succeeded where he aims to prevail.

The British boxer noted, “People say to me I need to walk forward on Usyk, walk him down and hit him, but if it was so easy, why didn’t Joshua, who is a big strong man, do that? Why didn’t Dubois do it? Those men are limited compared to me, very limited.”

He added, “I believe a more straightforward approach is a gift for Usyk. My style—side-on boxing, slipping, sliding—is effective, and I’m going to enhance that with an even greater focus for this fight.”

Fury’s comments about Joshua and Dubois come at a time when there are ongoing discussions regarding their roles in the heavyweight division.

Now 34, Joshua faced a fifth-round knockout loss to Dubois in September, prompting speculation about his future direction.

Note that trainer Tony Sims has suggested that the long-anticipated clash between Fury and Joshua could still be a possibility, depending on the outcome of Fury’s rematch with Usyk.
