In my head, call me deluded, he\u2019s going to knock out Deontay Wilder, and then he\u2019s going to knock out Tyson Fury,&#8217; Hearn told <span>talkSPORT<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He\u2019s going to become the undisputed heavyweight world champion and then we are going to sail off into the sunset. Like I said, call me deluded, whatever you want, I don\u2019t care what you call me!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/11\/23\/75312693-12506611-image-a-1_1694473126507.jpg\" height=\"445\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Anthony Joshua is targeting fights with Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury as he eyes the end of his career<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/12\/00\/75312723-12506611-image-m-4_1694473201078.jpg\" height=\"417\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>His promoter Eddie Hearn has tipped him to knock out Wilder and Fury before retiring<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/12\/00\/75312729-12506611-image-m-10_1694473313939.jpg\" height=\"496\" width=\"306\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/12\/00\/75312735-12506611-image-m-8_1694473294738.jpg\" height=\"496\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>Joshua could finally face Wilder and Fury in 2024 to round off his boxing career<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I see it. We have the vision for that. Let\u2019s make it happen.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Hearn&#8217;s prediction may raise a few eyebrows given Joshua&#8217;s most recent performances, with the Brit failing to impress for long periods in his wins over Jermaine Franklin and Robert Helenius this year.<\/p>\n<p>But Joshua still has the support of his promoter, who has revealed he does not expect his fighter to be around in the sport for much longer.<\/p>\n<p>Joshua had looked set to face Wilder at the end of this year, but Hearn has now hinted that his charge may take another tune-up fight in December, before targeting the American and Fury in 2024 in a bid to make Hearn&#8217;s prediction come true.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I never like to put a timescale on his career, but he did the other day when he said, &#8220;You know, I won&#8217;t be boxing in three [or] five years\u2019 time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;So, maybe we\u2019ve got one in December and maybe we\u2019ve got a couple of blockbusters next year. And then who knows? I don\u2019t think he\u2019s really got a timing on his career, but he wants to fight Wilder, and he wants to fight Fury.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think if he doesn\u2019t fight them, he won\u2019t be very happy and fulfilled with everybody he fought. Once he fights those two, he\u2019s boxed absolutely everyone in the division, all the players.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/boxing\/article-12506611\/Eddie-Hearn-insists-Anthony-Joshua-knock-Deontay-Wilder-Tyson-Fury-retiring-invites-boxing-fans-label-deluded-bold-prediction.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eddie Hearn insists Anthony Joshua will knock out Deontay Wilder AND Tyson Fury before retiring, as he invites boxing fans to label him &#8216;deluded&#8217;
