重量级传奇和名人堂成员乔治·福尔曼是IBF\IBO\WBA重量级冠军安东尼·约书亚（19-0，19 KOs）的超级粉丝。
约书亚10月28日面对保加利亚的库布拉特·普列夫，是一场强制卫冕战。但福尔曼更希望看到约书亚将来有机会与WBC冠军维尔德（38-0,37 KOs）打一场统一战。
福尔曼说；“与小科里钦科那是一场激动人心的比赛，约书亚是一个真正的斗士，就像过去的那些老战士一样，以后再也找不到了，我为拳击感到自豪。我还想看到的就是约书亚打维尔德，如果两个人能够打上一场，就会像梅威瑟VS嘴炮一样让世界拳迷激动”。
George Foreman Very High on Joshua, Wants Him To Face Wilder
Heavyweight legend and Hall of Famer George Foreman is a very big fan of IBF, IBO, WBA heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (19-0, 19 KOs).
Foreman, a two time heavyweight champion, would love to see Joshua unify against WBC champion Deontay Wilder (38-0, 37 KOs) in the near future. He views that showdown as one of the biggest fights to be made in boxing.
Foreman appeared on Obviously Fight Talk and discussed Joshua's career defining stoppage from this past April, when the British got off the floor to stop former division ruler Wladimir Klitschko in the eleventh round.

Joshua is back in the ring on October 28th, when he makes a mandatory defense of his belt against Kubrat Pulev of Bulgaria. As for Wilder, he is being lined up for a world title defense in November - possibly against unbeaten Cuban Luis Ortiz.
On Anthony Joshua & the state of the heavyweight division:
"Ah, boy, what a heavyweight fight Anthony Joshua and [Wladimir] Klitschko put on. Oh, boy. Exciting night for boxing. It was something exciting. Had me on the edge of the seat. Once again, it's a good fight for heavyweights. And there's a guy in the United States, they call him Wilder. Wilder is good, and once these two guys fight and meet in the middle of the ring, the world will come knocking again as they did for Conor McGregor [when he fought Floyd Mayweather]."
Continued – when asked if heavyweight boxing can come back to a Golden Age:
"I think so, this Anthony Joshua is something from the past. He's good for the present. And he's going to be spectacular for the future. Joshua, oh, yes, he's a fighter. He's a good one."
He says that the Joshua fight was Klitschko’s most memorable fight:
"The most memorable fight he's ever been in as far as I'm concerned. He laid it down on the line. he had to fight, he did fight. I'm proud of that for boxing. But that Anthony Joshua was something from the past. He was something from the past. You don't find that kind of fighter anymore." |
