After talks for an undisputed world title fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk collapsed, Anthony Joshua said: "We need more competition around that championship level... It's so tough being champion, so tough"
Anthony Joshua admits he will not be recognised as the "best" heavyweight until he regains a world title and has urged his rivals to stop "waiting" for a fight.
In an interview with Sky Sports News, Joshua did however admit to his own frustrations from his spell as a two-time world champion between 2016 and 2021.
Asked if he rated himself as the best in the world still, Joshua said: "No, because I'm not the champion. Being champion gives you credibility and status to say you're the best, so no I'm not the best at the minute.
