Should a deal be struck with the Bulgarian first, Joshua would then be unable to meet Ukrainian Usyk before the scheduled June deadline, meaning he would therefore relinquish the title – an idea that is already annoying the champion. “I would hate because it’s so hard to go round and collect all these belts, it’s really difficult and I’ve kept hold of them for so many years,” Joshua told Sky Sports.
