British boxer Anthony Joshua is in the final phase of his preparation for the engagement he will hold this month in the Middle East.

The fight scheduled for next July 25 in the city of Jeddah will place Anthony Joshua against the Albanian fighter Kristian Prenga, who has a record of 20 victories and a single defeat on the rented plane.

At the same time, his potential opponent will return to official activity in Pattaya, Thailand, measuring his strength against the Polish Mariusz Wach to complete his own cycle of physical work in the ring.

The viability of a direct confrontation between both British giants depends on them managing to overcome their respective weekend commitments without suffering injuries or medical suspensions. "It's the reality of my life. It's what I have in front of me," declared Anthony Joshua in an interview with the DAZN broadcast platform when evaluating the options that are currently presented in his professional career.

Tactical analysis of Fury's performance

The immediate antecedents record the presence of the London 2012 Olympic medalist in the front row of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during the month of April. That evening, Fury defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov by scorecard after completing the twelve regulation rounds, a performance that helped the technical team analyze the weaknesses and strengths of his future opponent.

Although the winner of the April fight tried to force an immediate confrontation in the ring at the end of the actions, Anthony Joshua's corner preferred to remain calm and avoid commercial provocations before the media.

The analysis of the rounds played provided technical information regarding the mobility and distance used by the former monarch of the World Boxing Council in his commitments.

Regarding the strategy necessary to neutralize his opponent's style, the boxer expressed his total confidence of obtaining a favorable result regardless of the physical version that his rival presents. "It's easy to say from the outside, but I see ways to beat Fury. I don't count on Fury giving his best, nor on him being at his worst for me to win... I simply trust in myself and I know that I can beat him in any way," Anthony Joshua said in his talk with DAZN.

Daily training in the gym constitutes the pillar on which the confidence of the British corner is based in the face of the lawsuit scheduled for the fourth quarter of this year.

Tactical planning seeks to optimize the volume of hitting to counteract the opponent's defense, ensuring that the outcome of the contest will be defined by the preparation accumulated during the weeks of camp in the gym.
