Tyson Fury is currently set to take on Dillian Whyte on April 23 in an All-British battle. 'The Body Snatcher' gets his long awaited title shot, and Fury gets to make his title defense against a top contender in the division.
Anthony Joshua, on the other hand, is looking to take on Oleksandr Usyk in a rematch. If both 'AJ' and Fury can win their next fights, it could possibly set up an undisputed title fight between the two.

Fury originally looked to fight Anthony Joshua in an All-British battle for the title of Undisputed. However, 'AJ' had to defend his belts against Oleksandr Usyk and ended up losing to the Ukrainian.
Fury then decided to take on his mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte in the meantime. Fury was also forced to fight Deontay Wilder again last year shortly after AJ's Usyk fight. Now both 'AJ' and Fury have to win their next fights in order to set up a clash between the two.
