The former unified heavyweight champion says another world title is not enough as he prepares to face Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Saudi Arabia<\/p>\n

Anthony Joshua says becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion remains his ultimate goal as he prepares to face Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Saudi Arabia. The former unified champion believes he still has the ambition to reclaim boxing\u2019s biggest prize despite a new generation of heavyweight contenders.<\/p>\n

\u201cPhysical and mental, I\u2019m solid, very solid,\u201d said Joshua to DAZN Boxing<\/a>. \u201cAnd if I can improve my spirituality, I\u2019ll definitely get to where I want to get to. And I believe I can become undisputed. I still have got the ambition and hunger. Anything below that, is a champion. So one of the two, I\u2019m definitely going to get.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joshua\u2019s next fight comes against Prenga in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in a fight he is expected to win. Victory would likely move him into a long-discussed showdown with Tyson Fury later this year, one of the biggest fights available in boxing.<\/p>\n

Even if Joshua defeats Prenga and Fury, his pursuit of the undisputed championship would still require him to navigate one of boxing\u2019s deepest heavyweight divisions. WBC champion Agit Kabayel, WBO champion Daniel Dubois, the eventual WBA and IBF champions, and unbeaten contender Moses Itauma could all stand between Joshua and the achievement he says is still within reach.<\/p>\n

Joshua\u2019s ambition is easy enough to understand. The harder part is turning it into reality. He is no longer chasing the same heavyweight division he once ruled. The titleholders are different, new contenders have emerged, and younger fighters are beginning to take over. Joshua may believe another undisputed reign is still possible, but he\u2019ll have to prove he can beat the best heavyweights of this era before that vision becomes anything more than confidence.<\/p>\n
