Joe Joyce has set his sights on facing the winner of the fight between Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk.
The Nigerian-British heavyweight boxer overpowered Carlos Takam at Wembley Arena on Saturday to preserve his status as the number challenger for Joshua’s title.
Joyce stopped Takam in the sixth round after landing series of devastating uppercut and jabs that sent the French-Cameroonian crashing to the ropes.
“What I want is AJ or Usyk, “I don’t need any more tests.
“I’ve started at the deep end and I’ve carried on at a steady trajectory.” He told BT Sport.
Joyce has now stretched his unbeaten record to 13 victories, 12 by knockout. He also retained his Commonwealth, WBC Silver and WBO International heavyweight titles.
