As for former two-time champion Anthony Joshua<\/a>, the Watford native has been out of action since his own loss, suffering a knockout loss to Daniel Dubois a year ago.<\/p>\n However, with links gathering pace on a summer showdown next year, Fury and Joshua have been urged by British boxing royalty to finally settle their grudge.<\/p>\n As far as former undisputed heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis<\/a> is concerned, a clash of Fury and Joshua must happen next year \u2014 or risk never happening at all.<\/p>\n He himself, considered one of the greatest heavyweights of all-time and arguably the best boxer in British history, Lewis admitted he would have regretted not fighting Mike Tyson<\/a>. And fears Fury and Joshua would regret not facing each other.<\/p>\n \u201cThey [Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua] should fight each other,\u201d Lewis told talkSPORT. \u201cI think the British public is waiting for that fight. Like, you know, for me, my regret would have been not fighting Mike Tyson. <\/p>\n \u201c\u2026I think for the British fighters, they need to close the [heavyweight] era, too,\u201d Lewis continued. \u201cBut if they don\u2019t want to, it\u2019s up to them. You know, they\u2019re the kings for their \u2014 for what they want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n And with Joshua expected to make a historic trip to Ghana at the beginning of next year for a return to boxing, a pairing with Fury has received quite a sizable boost.<\/p>\n Tyson Fury\u2019s own future cast into doubt<\/p>\n But while Joshua\u2019s future seems clearer to a degree, Fury\u2019s own chances of making a walk to the ring have been thrown into jeopardy.<\/p>\n![\"Tyson](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GettyImages-2190325926-1024x683.jpg\")
