Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are set to finally meet later this year, but last weekend’s displays had some fans questioning what both men had left in the tank.

After watching both performances, Sydney 2000 Olympic gold medallist, Audley Harrison, has shared his thoughts on the fight.

Fury took seven rounds to dispose of 46-year-old Mariusz Wach last Friday in Thailand, an alarmingly long time considering Moses Itauma required just two rounds to halt the Polish veteran back in 2024. 

However, any concerns regarding Fury’s remaining ability were soon forgotten when ‘AJ’ was floored twice in the opening round of what was expected to be a one-sided clash against Albania’s Kristian Prenga.

In round two, Joshua recovered to knock Prenga out, but his inability to hold a shot in those first three minutes has left some former fighter calling for him to retire rather than a long-awaited scrap with ‘The Gypsy King’.

On social media, Harrison offered his thoughts, admitting that both men are past their primes but maintained that he still expects it to be ‘a great fight.’ 

“Joshua’s punch resistance is not what it was, he has been a great ambassador for the sport and a great ambassador for British boxing but Father Time is undefeated. 

“It’s the same thing watching Fury and Wach, they are obviously not in their prime. But I think, just like Lennox [Lewis] and Mike Tyson weren’t in their prime, that was a fight that I flew to Memphis to be at, and I still think everyone will be excited about Joshua and Tyson Fury.

“It will still be a great fight, but they are at the end of their great careers.”

Fury-Joshua is expected to take place this November topping a blockbuster bill that will be broadcast live on Netflix.
