Tyson Fury says Anthony Joshua is a “stepping stone” to a potential trilogy fight with Oleksandr Usyk, and he predicts a fast result against his fellow British boxer. Fury vows to knock out Joshua “inside seven rounds,” framing the bout as a step in his broader plan for meeting Usyk again.

Both outlets report Fury’s comments as part of his ongoing promotion of a fight with Joshua. The emphasis is on Fury’s confidence in the outcome and the significance he assigns to the contest in relation to his aspirations involving Usyk. While the sources present the same core statements, they do so in a sports-news context that highlights Fury’s view of the matchup and the timeline he is targeting.

Overall, the reports focus on Fury’s stated motivations and his stated knockout prediction, without adding new details about fight negotiations, dates, or broader championship implications beyond linking Joshua to a possible Usyk trilogy.
