Former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua will fight the winner of the bout between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight championship.
 
This is according to World Boxing Council President, Mauricio Sulaiman.
 
Fury and Usyk go head-to-head on May 18 in Saudi Arabia for all the belts.
 
The two boxers are expected to fight again in a rematch expected to take place later in the year.
 
Joshua will be waiting for the winner, after recording a devastating second-round knockout victory over former UFC heavyweight champion, Francis Ngannou, last weekend.
 
“The WBC was presented a sanction request which was to fight for the undisputed. The WBC accepted that sanctioning and we accepted the rematch they have requested,” Sulaiman told Sky Sports.
 
“But, if it is not anything to do with contractual or promotion, we would absolutely accept the winner to fight Joshua.

“The WBC position right now is very open to support the undisputed champion taking on the fights that the fans want to see.”
