- Proposed fight with Tyson Fury appears unlikely
- Fury turns to second rematch with Deontay Wilder
Anthony Joshua has been ordered to defend his WBO heavyweight title against mandatory challenger Oleksandr Usyk following the apparent collapse of the Briton’s fight against domestic rival Tyson Fury.
Fury announced earlier this week he would take on Joshua in Saudi Arabia on 14 August, only to be informed hours later by a United States arbitrator that he was contractually obliged to fight Deontay Wilder for a third time.
