I sparred both Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury – here’s who would win super-fight between rivals

BOXER Jeremiah Milton’s opinion on who would win between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury has changed – having sparred them both.

Milton was in camp before Fury’s trilogy bout win over American Deontay Wilder in 2021.

And then two years later, he shared rounds in Texas before AJ’s comeback win against Jermaine Franklin.

Joshua, 34, has won three on the spin since and looked back to his best in December with a fifth-round stoppage win over Otto Wallin.

And now he returns on Friday in Saudi Arabia against Francis Ngannou – who Milton has actually been in camp with.

Ngannou, 37, put his MMA career on hold to cross over to boxing last year and floored Fury, 35, only to lose a controversial split-decision.

And the recent run of form has left Milton tipping Joshua to secure British bragging rights over the Gypsy King.

He told SunSport: “I’d actually back AJ to pull it off.

“I think these guys all deserve to fight each other at some point, because it’s all speculation. But yeah, I’ve got AJ pulling that off.”

Fury is set to face Oleksandr Usyk, 37, for the four-belt undisputed crown on May 18 after he pulled out of the February 17 date with a cut.

And Saudi boxing bosses want the winner of the unification bout to then meet Joshua or Ngannou.

So it paves the way for the Battle of Britain to finally commence and Milton explained why he now favours AJ in the domestic dust-up.

He said: “I think there has been a silent passing of the torch and it hasn’t happened on paper yet, it hasn’t happened in the ring.

“But this whole triangle theory of, ‘Oh he’s the guy because he beat this guy.’

“It’s like we’ve got back to that somehow and once these fighters fight against each other on any given night they can beat somebody.

“I think Joshua is actually the better one and I’ve shared the ring with Fury and I’ve got mad respect for Fury but I think Joshua is better because he’s more consistent.

“And Fury might have a big of tricks and might be able to do all these things but it’s that consistency, it’s that ‘OK I’ve got good power and I’m going to work and continue to give it my best at all times’.

I think these guys all deserve to fight each other at some point, because it’s all speculation. But yeah, I’ve got AJ pulling that off.

“Sometimes Fury might say he’s giving it his best but we don’t know, we just don’t know what we’re going to get.

“So again just Joshua with the consistency and proving he’s going to step up and fight a lot of people at any given notice, yeah I’d have to say Joshua.”

Milton is in Saudi after completing camp with Ngannou and remained on the fence when pressed on a winner in the AJ fight.

He said: “It’s going to be a knockout.

“There’s going to be a knockout. I’m definitely willing to tick on the ballet that somebody’s going to get knocked out.

“I don’t think it’s that type of fight, both dudes get hit and that’s because they’re in the process of trying to hit and you get hit.

“Two big punchers, what else could possibly happen? I don’t see it going to a decision.”
