Anthony Joshua Won't Wait Around for Tyson Fury Fight.

Anthony Joshua is calling on Tyson Fury to face him while they're both in their prime, emphasizing he won't linger in anticipation for the fellow British heavyweight.

Anthony Joshua, aged 34, is set to challenge Daniel Dubois for the IBF world title on September 21 at Wembley Stadium.

Meanwhile, Tyson Fury, aged 35, has a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk scheduled for December. A victory for Fury and Joshua could potentially set up a highly anticipated undisputed fight between them.

"Let's make this fight happen while we're both at our best—how many battles do I need before facing Fury? Let's do it," said Joshua.

The mega-fight, considered the biggest and most lucrative in the division, has been discussed for years but faced hurdles during negotiations. Recent investments in boxing by Saudi Arabia have sparked new optimism for the long-awaited showdown.

"This fight has been simmering for a long time," Joshua told BBC Sport. "I can't wait until I'm 50 to fight Fury because I'd have endured so many battles. I won't wait around; I have to keep fighting."
