London, UK – Anthony Joshua remains one of the top contenders in heavyweight boxing, but the question on everyone’s mind is: can he ever become Undisputed Heavyweight Champion? With rankings in the IBF, WBO, and BoxRec, Joshua has earned his place among the elite. However, standing in his way is Oleksandr Usyk, the reigning World Heavyweight Champion, who has defeated Joshua twice. As Joshua rebuilds his career, the pursuit of becoming the Undisputed Champion will define his legacy.

Joshua's Achievements and Path Forward

Joshua, a two-time Unified Heavyweight Champion, is known for his knockout power and elite skill set. He first captured the global spotlight in 2017 after a dramatic TKO victory over Wladimir Klitschko, calling out Tyson Fury in the process. Despite being one of boxing’s highest-paid athletes, Joshua still has unfinished business—beating Usyk and facing Fury, the former Lineal Champion, remains his top priority. His record stands at 28-3 (25 KOs). His profile is nothing without his skill, and that’s frequently why he’s the clear pick with sports betting platforms like ComeOn.

This Saturday, Joshua faces a very real threat in Daniel Dubois, a dangerous up-and-comer with dangerous knockout power and a solid chin. Dubois, a top contender and without question the most serious threat Joshua has faced since his defeats to Usyk is a live underdog. This Saturday's showdown will test whether Joshua’s rebuild has been truly successful or if he’s now become vulnerable to his fellow top heavyweight contenders.

Challenges on the Road to Undisputed

Joshua's biggest obstacle remains World Champion Oleksandr Usyk, who outpointed him in two consecutive bouts in 2021 and 2022. Usyk, the first Undisputed Heavyweight Champion in almost 25 years, has proven to be a stylistic nightmare for Joshua. In 2021 Usyk won a 12 round unanimous decision. Chris Eubank Jr. called the win “one of the biggest statements in boxing for a very long time”. If Joshua is to ever hold the true Heavyweight Championship, he’ll need to conquer Usyk or defeat the new champion, depending on how things go in December when Usyk defends his crown against Tyson Fury.

Joshua’s Legacy at Stake

The road to becoming a true Undisputed Champion is more than just about titles; it’s about securing Joshua’s place in the pantheon of heavyweight greats.

Joshua has faced criticism for fighting in Saudi Arabia amid human rights concerns. Joshua has tried to avoid politics, saying, “I’m here for boxing”. Outside the ring, Joshua is one of the most marketable athletes globally, but the critical challenge remains: can he overcome Dubois, defeat Usyk and finally claim the Undisputed Crown?
