\u201cYou Give Me Words\u201d \u2014 The Conversation<\/p>\n
\u201cI offered him to fight. He said, \u2018Okay, next year we can do it.\u2019 I said, \u2018Okay, you give me words.\u2019 He said, \u2018Okay,’\u201d said Arslanbek Makhmudov to Boxing News<\/a> about a recent conversation he\u2019d had with Anthony Joshua.\u00a0<\/p>\n Promoter Eddie Hearn still hasn\u2019t named who he wants Joshua to fight in early 2026, other than Jake Paul. That fight will depend on whether Jake wins his November 14 exhibition match against Gervonta Davis.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a good opportunity for a sport. He lost against two guys [Mihai Nistor and Mahammadrasul Majidov] in the European championship and world championship. I beat these two guys,\u201d said Makhmudov about Joshua.<\/p>\n Both fighters have shown vulnerability lately. Makhmudov has suffered knockout losses to Guido Vianello and Agit Kabayel. For his part, Joshua has lost to Daniel Dubois and twice to Oleksandr Usyk in the last four years since 2021.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have the same symmetry. Same tall, same weight and same age,\u201d said Arlsanbek about him and AJ.<\/p>\n Olly Campbell has been covering boxing since 2010 and has written for Boxing News 24 since 2014.
