  • Fury offered to fight his fellow Briton, putting his WBC title on the line, and the Gypsy King sent another message

World boxing heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has continued to torment former two-time champion Anthony Joshua, over a potential blockbuster fight.

Fury, in a clip, enjoined AJ to accept a fight with him to stand a chance to win the coveted WBC title this December.

Gypsy King has disclosed that he is unimpressed with Joshua’s response to the fight negotiations even though it earlier emerged that AJ accepted the offer.

And in new footage, Fury once again sent another message:

“AJ, I still haven’t heard from you. I am going to do a video every hour for the full day, until you agree or don’t agree. And just to clarify, there has never been a December 17 fight, ever. There’s only ever been November 26 at Wembley or December 3.
“This is it AJ, Eddie – don’t get scared now. Agree to the fight and let’s give the fans what they want. Go time.”

Boxing expert sends warning to Joshua

Meanwhile, boxing journalist Gareth Davies has warned Anthony Joshua not to attempt a fight against WBC heavyweight champion of the world Tyson Fury before the end of the year.

Joshua, who lost his rematch to Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk, has accepted Fury’s ‘battle of Britain’ challenge for the WBC title.

Fury shared a clip on social media urging Joshua to consider fighting him in a bid for him to remain in the heavyweight title picture.

The day Anthony Joshua met Queen Elizabeth

Sports Brief earlier reported that two-time former world boxing heavyweight champion met with the Queen of England and gave an inspiring speech during Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey in 2020.

The Royal Family announced that the Queen died peacefully at Balmoral on Thursday afternoon, September 8, 2022, and that the King and the Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral and will return to London on Friday.

It is a time to reflect on the life and times of the late Monarch as former world champion Anthony Joshua, who proudly also represents his Nigerian background, was chosen to give a reflection at Westminster Abbey.
