Anthony Joshua Career Record Titles and Future Fight Against Tyson Fury

Anthony Joshua faces Tyson Fury to end 2026, bringing a 30-4 career record with 27 knockouts into the ring after wins over Jake Paul and Kristian Prenga.

Hailing from Watford, England, the 37-year-old former champion serves as the flagship fighter for Matchroom Boxing. His professional career began in 2013 following a 40-3 amateur run and a gold medal at the 2012 Olympics, which earned him Member of the Order of the British Empire status.

Titles Won and Career Progression

Early in his professional tenure, Joshua secured the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles by defeating Gary Cornish and Dillian Whyte between 2014 and 2015. He later captured the IBF heavyweight title from Charles Martin, the WBA version from Wladimir Klitschko, and the WBO belt from Joseph Parker during a run from 2016 to 2018.

Andy Ruiz Jr. handed Joshua a major upset in 2019 after stepping in for Jarrell Miller, who faced a suspension following multiple failed drug tests. Joshua reclaimed the WBA, IBF, and WBO titles in a direct rematch against Ruiz and successfully defended them against Kubrat Pulev in December 2020.

Oleksandr Usyk then defeated Joshua via unanimous decision in September 2021 and secured a split decision victory in their August 2022 rematch. Joshua responded with four consecutive victories, including three knockouts and a win against former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, before suffering a knockout loss to Daniel Dubois.

Following the defeat against Dubois, Joshua returned to action by knocking out YouTuber Jake Paul in December and stopping Kristian Prenga in July, setting up the scheduled matchup against Fury.
