Tyson Fury has expressed interest in helping Anthony Joshua prepare for his rematch against Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk.

'The Gypsy King' recently sat down for an interview with BT Sport. There, he revealed he would be open to offering his services to 'AJ' to help him win the rematch against 'The Cat':

"I know that If I trained [Anthony] Joshua, me and Sugar Hill trained him for this next fight, he'd definitely beat Oleksandr Usyk. That's a fact. And I would be open to doing it. i'd be very open for me and Sugar Hill to train him. I'll do it for free because I don't need the money. I don't want to take his money anyway. But we would take on that challenge, no problem, I guarantee you that he beats him," said Tyson Fury.

When asked how he would help Joshua get better for the rematch, 'The Gypsy King' said:

"I'll tell you what I would do, I'd give him the right information to beat Usyk, which I'm not gonna say what but I think everybody knows. But this information that I say, you've gotta train for [it], you can't just do it. It's not a game plan. It's not just like saying, 'Right, do this, do that,' and do it. You have to train to do it and I think he could."
