Anthony Joshua has demanded Tyson Fury to “talk with his fists” and face him in 2026 to settle their differences in a British super fight.

AJ dispatched Jake Paul in six rounds, overcoming a frustrating opening against his overmatched opponent.

The Briton broke Paul’s jaw and then turned his attention to Fury, who had criticised him in the build-up to the fight, with a potential showdown reportedly arranged by Riyadh Season boss Turki Alalshikh.

“I appreciate everyone in this venue,” Joshua said after securing victory in Miami. “It wasn’t the best performance, the end goal was to get Paul, pin him down and hurt him.

“that was on my mind, it took longer than expected. Now, Jake Paul has done really well tonight. He got up, time and time again.

“It was difficult for me in there. We give them their respect, he tried and tried, but he came up against a real fighter in there.

“I had a 15 month layoff, if Tyson is as serious as he is, if he wants to put on some gloves, take a challenge, don’t give all that talking, AJ this, AJ that, let’s see you talk with your fists.”

While Paul detailed the damage suffered at the hands of the former world champion.

 

“That was crazy, I had a blast, I’m blessed by God to put on a performance like this. Anthony is a great fighter, I got my arse beat. But I’ll come back and keep winning,” Paul said.

“I’ve already won in every single way in life, my family, my jaw is broken by the way, it’s definitely broke, nice little arse whooping from one of the best to ever do it.

“Honestly, I’m not surprised, I just got tired, so much handling his weight, I think with better cardio, I could’ve kept fighting. I did my personal best.

“Oh, for sure, we’ll heel the broken jaw, go back, fight people my own weight and go for the cruiserweight world title.”
