Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin has disclosed that Tyson Fury remains the favourite to beat Anthony Joshua, despite having previously stated that Joshua was a tougher opponent when they faced each other.
In a chat with World Boxing News, Wallin noted that Fury’s superior boxing skills, size, and ability to move make him the likely winner.
Despite favouring Fury, Wallin acknowledges that Joshua has a strong chance, particularly if he focuses on body shots to slow Fury down.

“Yeah, I think he can,” Wallin told WBN when asked whether Fury still beats Joshua.
“I think it’s a close fight, though. Joshua is obviously a big puncher, and Fury is a very good fighter, so it’s an interesting fight.
“It kind of depends on seeing where they are both at, but with a good game plan, I think Fury can beat Joshua. Also, the other way around, I think Joshua can beat Fury.
“For me, it’s a close fight and hard to pick a winner right now.”
