See what fight Eddie Hearn wants Anthony Joshua to start 2025 with.

According to Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn, Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua should be the next step in both fighters' careers.

The bout between the two top British heavyweights of their generation has been on the radar screen for years but has yet to materialize.

Although the stakes aren't as high as they were when they were unbeaten world champions.

Hearn claims that there is still a strong desire to hold the fight in 2025.

After a big win in Saudi Arabia, Oleksandr Usyk says Anthony Joshua will beat Tyson Fury if they fight.
Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua may meet in 2024 After a big win in Saudi Arabia, Oleksandr Usyk says Anthony Joshua will beat Tyson Fury if they fight.

This is because both fighters have recently suffered defeats in 2025.

Fury lost twice to Oleksandr Usyk and Joshua recently to Daniel Dubois at Wembley.

Hearn acknowledges that the bout is still a long way off, even if it makes logic and would probably have the support of Saudi Arabia's boxing moneymen.

Tyson Fury recently said on Instagram that he is prepared to take on a number of heavyweight challengers, including a British professional boxer of Nigerian descent Anthony Joshua.

Hearn is aware that if Fury and Joshua are to ultimately square off, time is of the essence.

However, he intends to wait until the Gypsy King has had a chance to recover from the losses to Usyk before making a deal.
