Joshua bout will answer question, says Fury

Tyson Fury believes it would be “a sin” for the world’s leading heavyweights not to fight each other to establish the undisputed champion.

The 30-year-old takes on WBC title-holder Deontay Wilder in Los Angeles on December 1.

Whoever wins could get a shot at Britain’s Anthony Joshua, who has the WBO, WBA and IBF belts, although the potential for a rematch should Wilder lose may complicate matters.

Fury was asked about the debate over who is the better fighter. “I’m not sure,” he said. “People will always have an opinion on who is better, it is not up to me.

“But it would be a sin not to fight each other and all get in the mix.

“Who is the best we will find out when we fight each other”

“It is going to be an exciting time.

“Who is the best we will find out when we all fight each other.”

First Fury, who is putting his 27-fight unblemished record on the line, must get past an American opponent who is 40-0 with 39 knockouts.

He believes beating Wilder in the United States would make victory even sweeter, having pulled off a similar feat three years ago when he beat Wladimir Klitschko in Germany to land his world title.

“I’m hoping it is going to be the biggest fight of my life, that’s what I’m preparing for,” said Fury, who will be in only his third comeback fight after vacating his WBO and WBA titles to focus on treatment for depression while also spending time out of the ring after testing positive for a banned steroid.

“I’m happy it is here – it gets me on the road again,” he said.
