Tyson Fury sung the praises of Jared Anderson in 2023, with the heavyweight prospect now promising to live up to such expectations.<\/p>\n
\u2018The Gypsy King\u2019 shared multiple rounds of sparring with Anderson in preparation for his rematch and trilogy showdown with Deontay Wilder, both of which he won by stoppage.<\/p>\n
But while Fury has hailed the American<\/a> in numerous interviews, saying he is the \u201cheir to the heavyweight throne\u201d, only time will tell as to whether his premonition holds any weight.<\/p>\n Sure enough, the future of Anderson\u2019s career seemed in serious jeopardy after he suffered an emphatic fifth-round stoppage defeat to Martin Bakole<\/a> in 2024.<\/p>\n In fairness, \u2018The Real Big Baby\u2019 could have done with a few more development fights, before facing an opponent with Bakole\u2019s experience and physical attributes.<\/p>\n But while Anderson could be forgiven for rolling the dice in such a way, it is far less easy to look beyond his last outing, against Marios Kollias, in February 2025.<\/p>\n Back then, the talented operator produced a lacklustre display, and even appeared to be troubled by his limited opponent, before claiming a unanimous decision victory.<\/p>\n Hoping to keep such performances in the past, though, Anderson has now taken to social media and expressed his ambition to prove he is far more than a hype job.<\/p>\n \u201cNow I\u2019m coming for everything.
