Joe Joyce is ready to enforce a mandatory challenge to face Oleksandr Usyk if the champion cannot agree a fight with Tyson Fury.
'The Juggernaut' recently picked up another win on his undefeated professional streak over Joseph Parker to reinforce his status as mandatory challenger to Usyk's world title. The Ukrainian successfully defended his belt against Anthony Joshua back in August and called for a shot at becoming undisputed champion in a fight with Fury who holds the WBC crown.
Joyce will soon be able to cash in on his status as the mandatory challenger but will likely face a wait, with Fury set to defend his belt on December 3 against Derek Chisora at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before pursuing a shot at Usyk. However Joyce's promoter Frank Warren has insisted that his fighter will be in big fights irrespective of any wait for a world title quest.
