“I See Him In Control”: Kell Brook Has No Doubt Who Would Win Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua: “I See Him In Control”
Former world champion Kell Brook is keen to see Anthony Joshua versus Tyson Fury.
Kell Brook knows all about grudge matches between countrymen who have not always got on. For many years in his career, he considered himself to be in the shadow of Amir Khan who shot to fame soon after winning a silver medal at a young age in the Athens Olympics and then turned pro to plenty of fanfare.
Khan went on to win a light welterweight title in quick time and had plenty of big nights against the likes of Terence Crawford and Canelo Alvarez.
Brook also reached the top by becoming a welterweight world champion after defeating Shawn Porter, but later lost to Errol Spence Jr and Crawford.
He and Khan both ended their careers with a much anticipated fight in Manchester back in February 2022 when Brook won via stoppage in the 6th round.
Speaking to Seconds Out, ‘The Special One’ was asked if he thinks Fury and Joshua will share a ring in 2025
“Yeah, I think they’re both at that stage of their career where they fight for big money. This is the time.”
He was then asked how it would go.

“I’d go with Fury. I just see Fury in control, to be honest with you. Overall, looking at it, I think he’s got more than Joshua. He’s done it all, he’s a fighting man, he can box, he can fight.
“Don’t get me wrong, Joshua is a serious athlete who can punch, he’s an athlete and it’s heavyweight boxing at the end of the day but I’d go with Fury.”
Unfortunately for fans who are looking forward to the fight, Fury threw a spanner in the works recently when he announced his retirement from the sport. That came following two losses to Oleksandr Usyk, losing his heavyweight belt in what he described as ‘robberies’ on the cards
Many feel that he will still be tempted to face ‘AJ’ – who has also been beaten twice by Usyk and recently failed in an attempt to win back a title against Daniel Dubois – later this year.
