Croft twins eye Joshua-Fury card in Cardiff

Welsh boxing twins Garan and Ioan Croft are eyeing a spot on the Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury undercard in Cardiff. The highly anticipated bout is scheduled to take place at the Principality Stadium on December 11th. The Croft brothers are under Eddie Hearn's Matchroom company, and Garan expressed his desire to be part of the event.

"The one we both want is the Anthony Johsua v Tyson Fury undercard in Cardiff. It would be great to get some Welsh fighters out there on the undercard, including me and Ioan. It would be a dream come true to fight there," he stated. The twins gained recognition at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, with Garan securing a bronze medal in the light-middleweight category and Ioan winning gold at welterweight.

Following their recent victory, Garan defeated Italian fighter Mohammed Graich in just 90 seconds. Both brothers have impressive records of 7 wins and 0 losses since turning professional. The 90-second demolition of Graich by Garan showcased his prowess and left no doubt about his readiness for bigger challenges. He added, "I didn't learn much from beating Graich but I've had my learning fights now and it's about making statements. I'm ready for bigger tests and hopefully a bigger occasion in December. Bring it on."
