Anthony Joshua: I'll smash up those UFC fighters, you cant talk to me like that
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Unified Heavyweight Boxing Champion Anthony Joshua has more than happily said he'd take on any UFC Heavyweight with the restriction of submissions as he knows better than to accept a fight involving them.
"I am not a UFC fighter"
Personally I think Joshua stands one hell of a chance against many respectable UFC heavyweights under kickboxing regulations. He has unbelievable accuracy and power and for such a huge guy he has the endurance of a gazelle. I would love to see him go toe to toe with the likes of Stipe.

With pay-per-view king Floyd Mayweather hanging up the gloves following his mega-money showdown with UFC superstar Conor McGregor, boxings throne appears destined for Joshua.
But the 27-year-old claimed he would be open to a crossover fight of his own, after being repeatedly challenged by rivals from the MMA world.
Speaking exclusively to Daily Star Online about rumours he would appear on the Mayweather vs McGregor undercard, Joshua said: It was a bit of light-hearted banter.
Current UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic and former champ Junior Dos Santos are just two of the names to have thrown their hat in the ring for a prospective battle with Joshua.
Last year, Joshua spent time with Dos Santos during a training camp in Rio de Janeiro but the IBF, WBA and IBO unified champ claimed he would still batter the Brazilian if the calling came.
