British-Nigerian boxer Anthony Joshua has agreed to allow rival Tyson Fury train him ahead of his rematch with Ukrainian star Oleksandr Usyk.
Joshua will let Fury train him so long his fellow countryman is doing it for free as he prepares for his rematch with Usyk.
UK outlet Mirror are reporting that the Gypsy King made such offer just before his trilogy fight with Deontay Wilder last month, but Joshua kept mum about the request.
Joshua has now reacted to Fury’s comments as he told iFL TV via SunSport: “Yeah lovely mate.
“If he takes no money for it.
“I don’t know if he’s after a quid or two.
“He’s more than welcome to come through the doors, he can even spar with me as well.”
Meanwhile, Joshua toured a number of gyms in America last week in an effort to take in some new information as he prepares to face Usyk again.
It appears the two-time world champion has ditched his longtime coach, Rob McCracken, despite their game plan coming in for plenty of criticism in defeat by the Ukrainian.
