WBC champion Tyson Fury has his sights set on a fight against former champ Anthony Joshua after his undisputed bout with Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, dismissing talks of retirement, Saturday PUNCH reports.

Fury set out an ambitious five-fight plan, including a long-awaited bout against Joshua.

WBC champion Fury’s unification bout with Usyk, who holds the WBO, WBA and IBF belts, had been due to take place in Riyadh later this month.

However, the eagerly anticipated contest was postponed until May 18 in Saudi Arabia after the British fighter suffered a deep cut above his eye in training.

“Then I’m going to fight Ngannou again. That’s just the start. There’s five fights for you to whet your appetite. I ain’t going nowhere. I’m 35 years old and in the prime of my life.”

Fury has won 34 fights with one draw since turning professional in 2008.

His most recent fight was a controversial victory over former UFC mixed martial arts champion Ngannou, who made his professional boxing debut. Fury was knocked down by the Cameroonian but won through split decision.

Two-time former world champion Joshua is set for a non-title fight with Ngannou, also in Saudi Arabia, March 8.
