Anthony Joshua believes ‘he will walk through’ British heavyweight rival Tyson Fury, and silence all of his doubters.

Joshua, 30, outpointed Andy Ruiz Jr to reclaim the WBA, IBF and WBO world titles in their rematch in December in Saudi Arabia.

Fury knocked out Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas, three months later to take the WBC crown. And this time, the British rivals are set for a dream showdown when the COVID-19 lockdown is lifted. Joshua and Fury are first scheduled to face Kubrat Pulev and Wilder, respectively.

But Joshua told DAZN: “I’m working towards beating Tyson Fury, whether the bookmakers, believers or doubters want to be with me or not, I have to believe it.

“I am working towards beating Tyson Fury. In a way, it is overlooking Pulev but I’ve got to look through Pulev because I am going to walk through Pulev, that’s the mindset.

“When it comes to Pulev, he isn’t on my level. I am walking through him….. So I’m looking at Tyson Fury like I’m going to walk through him as well.”
