Miocic wants Joshua fight on McGregor-Mayweather undercard
Miocic calls out Joshua for a fight on McGregor-Mayweather undercard. On Mayweather’s recent visit to London, Joshua jokingly asked Mayweather for a place on the fight. However, there is no word of any communication between the fighters and the organisers at this time. Miocic:
[Anthony]’s a world champ for a reason. It would just be amazing. It would be an amazing opportunity. I would just be so grateful….I did Golden Gloves and all that good stuff. I just love the fight. I think it would be a great fight. I think people would love to see it.

Miocic ‘super confident’ he can beat Joshua in a boxing match
Fresh from his title defense over Junior Dos Santos, Miocic says he wants to fight Joshua, and that he is confident he can win.
I think it would be a great fight. He’s an amazing fighter. I think it would be great, something different. I’d love to show what I’ve got. I think he’s an amazing fighter, nothing to take away from him honestly but I think it would be awesome. Conor’s going to do it. It’s great cross promotion, I’d love to be a part of that. I did Golden Gloves and all that good stuff. I just love the fight. I think it would be a great fight. I think people would love to see it. [I’m] super confident. I’m going to go out there and give it all I got. Listen, I’ve got the best coaches in the world and I’d definitely be ready for that fight.
