Boxer Anthony Joshua is expected to fight Tyson Fury later this year. As it turns out, Joshua shares the same WWE ambitions that his upcoming opponent has. Much like Fury has wrestled in WWE, Joshua said in a recent interview that he would like to do the same.
“I’m gonna do WWE because that’s what Muhammad Ali did, so I’m going to do WWE,” Joshua said to Alternative Sport.
Muhammad Ali has a long history with WWE. He was the guest referee in the main event of the first-ever WrestleMania. His shoot-style match with Antonio Inoki in 1976 was also one of the first events Vince McMahon Jr. ever promoted. Vince sold tickets to a closed-circuit viewing of the fight.
