Anthony Joshua has given his prediction ahead of the undisputed heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.

On May 18 the two champions will collide in Saudi Arabia for the first heavyweight boxing match of its kind this century.

The bout was initially scheduled to take place in February but Fury was forced to pull out after he sustained a cut in sparring.

Now it's been rescheduled all eyes in the boxing world are fixed on it and the rematch which is set to take place later in the year no matter the outcome.

Fury will defend his WBC title with Usyk putting his WBA, WBO and IBF titles on the line.

The eventual winner could end up facing former champion Joshua later down the line and he's given his say on who he thinks that could be.

"I've fought Usyk so I can only speak on what I've experienced with him - phenomenal fighter, I would say he's gonna do a really good job," AJ told TalkSport.

"I've never fought Fury, so I can't speak on what it's like to face him. Only speaking on what I know, I have to say Usyk will be victorious."

Joshua's two fights against Usyk went the distance but he ultimately lost both. His poor performance in the first bout drew criticism but he improve massively by the time they met again.

Given he's fought Usyk before AJ would surely have a greater chance of beating the Ukrainian compared to Tyson Fury.

Fury v Joshua is a fight that everyone wants to see in the future so if the Gypsy King does become undisputed champion there will be big calls for it to happen in 2025.

There have been negotiations about a potential fight between the British pair before but nothing came of them.
