Anthony Joshua is the king of world boxing.
The IBF champion has established himself as the world’s leading heavyweight with a 11th round TKO win against Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium this morning.
He now adds the vacant WBA title last held by Tyson Fury to his impressive collection.
Now he is eyeing Fury.
Joshua called out Tyson Fury after his sensational stoppage of Klitschko in front of 90,000 people.
Joshua climbed off the canvas for the first time in his pro career to stop the former world heavyweight king two minutes and 25 seconds into the 11th round and he immediately set his sights on a showdown with former-world No 1 Tyson Fury.
Tyson Fury has told Anthony Joshua he is ready to fight after watching his British rival become the WBA and IBF champion.
And Fury was quick to reply using his favourite form of communication, Twitter.
The former unified king had already called Joshua out before the fight and was quick to respond the new king.
‘Well done Anthony Joshua, good fight, you had life and death with Klitschko and I played with the guy,’ he said.
‘Let’s dance.’

Joshua, who had never fought past the seventh round and despite some shaky moments, paid tribute to Klitschko, who got up three times against him.
Klitschko refused to be drawn on his future after his fifth career loss.
