Former world cruiserweight champion Tony Bellew has publicly expressed confidence that heavyweight contender Anthony Joshua would beat Tyson Fury if the two fighters finally meet in the long‑anticipated matchup.

Bellew described the hypothetical bout as evenly poised, but insisted that Joshua’s punching power could give him the decisive edge over Fury should the fight be agreed and take place. The veteran boxer’s view adds fuel to discussions among fans and pundits about which British heavyweight would come out on top.

Although the much‑talked‑about showdown between Joshua and Fury has yet to be officially scheduled, Bellew’s backing for Joshua has sparked fresh debate in the boxing community about who would win in a head‑to‑head contest between two of the division’s biggest names.

The idea of the fight has been circulating for years, with both fighters active at the top level of the heavyweight scene, making Bellew’s remarks part of ongoing speculation about a potential blockbuster clash.
