Joe Joyce names huge heavyweight contenders he wants to fight

Joe Joyce is looking to work his way back up the heavyweight division and challenge for world titles.

Joyce was once the WBO interim champion and eventually would have been in line for a mandatory challenge.

However consecutive losses to Zhilei Zhang have left some observers questioning his future in the sport, but despite being 38, he is looking to make his way on the comeback trail.

That begins on March 16 in Birmingham, when he fights Kash Ali (live on ESPN+ in the US), and a win would steady his career after back-to-back losses.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Joyce sees a division that is ripe for disruption, with plenty of leading names that he believes he could take on effectively.

"It's all happening at heavyweight," he said. "I think against any of those top names that we just mentioned would be great. A rematch with Parker, rematch with [Daniel] Dubois. There's Wilder, Joshua, Fury, [Oleksandr] Usyk… I can box everybody.

"It's the entertainment business and there's plenty of good fights you'd like to see me in."
