Over the weekend, Tyson Fury accomplished his successful comeback when he defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov in London. Shortly after defeating Makhmudov, Tyson Fury openly challenged Anthony Joshua to a fight.<\/p>\n

Joshua was seated calmly in the gang watching the fight, reacted gracefully to Fury’s loudmouthed challenge, and gracefully refused it. \u201cI need to provide you the fight that everybody has been waiting for. I need you, AJ, Anthony Joshua. Let’s give the boxing fans what they need, the \u2018Battle of Britain’. I need to fight you next. Do you accept my challenge? You are an enormous wimp. Do you must fight or not? This time there isn’t a escape; after 10 years within the making, let’s dance!\u201d Fury yelled.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, unlike many other smug athletes in the game, Joshua remained seated and refused to come back face-to-face with Fury. The duo as a substitute exchanged words from opposite sides of the ropes, with Netflix and Turki Alalshikh suggesting a fight agreement for this summer.<\/p>\n

Joshua later clarified that he would not engage in any promotional stunts, as he wished to avoid overshadowing<\/a> Fury, who was having fun with his comeback victory against Arslanbek Makhmudov (H\/T talkSPORT).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s on him. It has been hard to get it done previously. Look, he\u2019s the one which retired. I\u2019ve been in the sport, never retired. I\u2019ve been standing strong for the last 13 years. It\u2019s on him. He disappears, come back, disappears. I\u2019m not here to chase fame, or chase hype,\u201d Joshua said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m an actual person and fight whoever is in front of me, whether it\u2019s him or the subsequent person. It don\u2019t matter to me,\u201d Joshua continued. Further when asked if he was actually planning to fight Fury next, \u201cThe Watford Warrior\u201d said, \u201cWe\u2019ll see. I used to be just in a serious incident just 4 months ago and I want to see what\u2019s occurring with my return to the ring. I\u2019m here and keeping my eye on the sport. There\u2019s real stuff happening in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
