Tyson Fury

Joshua takes on Usyk in their heavyweight rematch in Saudi Arabia tonight while Fury flew to Mallorca for the next leg of his speaking tour.

Fury is widely expected to call out the winner of Joshua's clash with Usyk for a fight which would crown the first undisputed heavyweight world champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999. Fury claims to have offered Chisora £2million for the trilogy fight having already beaten the Londoner in 2011 and 2014. Joshua and Usyk were preparing to clash for a second time in 11 months as they took to the ring in Saudi Arabia.

TYSON FURY and his dad John have jetted to Menorca ahead of Anthony Joshua's showdown with Oleksandr Usyk.The Gypsy King, 34, has spent the week feudi.

"I'll show you who wants smoke you little s***house. After going back and forth with Delboy this week Fury said on Friday: "I see Delboy's at it again. "He’s got to change his character completely. He needs a lot of that [heart], if he gets all of this, you get an AJ win. If he gets that game plan, who knows, I think he can do it. Plenty of punishment downstairs, bring them up through the middle and around the sides.

Oleksandr Usyk is a unique challenge for his opponents with ability that could rival Tyson Fury; but Anthony Joshua has the blueprint for him going into ...

"If the taller man knows how to make that pay, it's very, very hard for a little guy. "Not just the size difference, it's that Fury is that good at knowing how to use his size. The successes that he had were quite important successes. "I think Usyk's got the mentality and ring IQ to beat Fury. "Fury does make mistakes but go to that body. Trainer Dave Coldwell, who cornered Tony Bellew when he fought Usyk in 2018, pointed out: "I think a big part of Fury's big wins in the marquee fights that he's had is where he's got into his opponent's head, pretty much like Usyk does. "Tyson Fury is just a bit of a giant," Coldwell said. What Usyk would have to do is target Fury's trunk. He's smart and he's got the physical attributes. "But I think with Usyk's boxing ability and ring smarts, he'll have met his match there. But there is a missing piece of the heavyweight puzzle. The mercurial man from Morecambe, though, is unpredictable.

The rematch against Usyk has been incredibly lucrative for the British star but AJ still falls short of Fury's earnings.

When Tyson Fury stormed back into heavyweight boxing and ripped the WBC title from Deontay Wilder's grasp, an all-British blockbuster with Anthony Joshua ...

Back in September there were fleeting glimpses of the problems he can cause Usyk and the tide even felt like it had turned in the fifth and sixth rounds, only for the latter to find his feet again and retrieve control from the seventh onwards. Though that doesn't mean Joshua is incapable of banking rounds and regaining his titles on the scorecards. Usyk was quick and clever enough to capitalise on that last time out, with his crisp left hand finding the target far too frequently. Given Usyk's head is always bobbing up, down, left and right, targeting the body could be the key to victory for AJ this weekend. Joshua has never been one for a gritty brawl and, in truth, doesn't boast the engine to manhandle someone for 12 rounds. The obvious answer, as most armchair experts seem to have worked out, is for Joshua to get up close, impose his superior size and wear him down. With that in mind, Joshua has the power to alter the heavyweight landscape in dramatic fashion at Jeddah's King Abdullah Sports Centre. Being honest, Joshua has not looked the same fighter since Andy Ruiz Jr brought him crashing down to earth three years ago, a damaging defeat which appears to have shattered his confidence, not to mention they are up against a modern-day great with very few weaknesses in Usyk. Fury will now be waiting in the wings and watching closely as Joshua bids to avenge his defeat against Usyk in Saudi Arabia this weekend. Usyk made a mockery of lazy suggestions that he was too small to dethrone the 6ft 6in champion last September. It would also be near-enough impossible for him to resist the irritation of AJ flexing his muscles again after such a seismic triumph. Fury turned his attention back to Wilder and a trilogy bout he would ultimately win in exhilarating fashion.

The Saudis paid £66million for Anthony Joshua's rematch with Oleksandr Usyk and now they want to host Tyson Fury in a clash for the undisputed world ...

“We’ve seen through the numbers from the last fight we had, Joshua-Ruiz 2, that we had six gyms in Saudi that had boxing in them. He pointed to the increase in boxing since Joshua’s rematch with Andy Ruiz Junior in 2019 as proof that these showpiece occasions do inspire their people. Prince Abdulaziz claims the £66million outlay on Joshua’s rematch with Usyk was worth it because it caught the imagination of locals in Jeddah. The Saudis say they want to host big events to inspire their people to take up sport and to boost their fledgling tourist industry. “In the winter time, if it does happen, I think it will be hosted in Riyadh,” he said. Sports Minister HRH Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al Saud says they would like to stage WBC champ Fury in a fight for all four major heavyweight belts.

Tyson Fury has announced the death of his cousin on Instagram after he was involved in a fatal stabbing.

Knife crime in the UK is frightening. Another said: "So sorry for your Families sad loss. see you soon #onlycowardscarryweapons”

Boxer Tyson Fury has called on the government to introduce stronger punishments for knife crime after his cousin was killed in a stabbing.

He added: "Goose Green is a popular nightspot and would have been busy at the time and I appeal for anyone who was there overnight on Saturday or anyone with information about this incident - including phone photograph footage or videos - to come forward, in particular any friends of any of the victims or suspects who may have been out with them that night who have not yet come forward. - The proportion of offenders who received immediate custodial sentences for knife and offensive weapon crimes was 29% in 2021, "RIP Rico Burton - may the lord God grant you a good place in heaven, see you soon." The heavyweight champion said on social media "RIP Rico Burton", who was "stabbed in the neck" overnight. Supt Ben Ewart said one of the men, aged 21, was arrested at the scene and the other, aged 20, was arrested later.

Oleksandr Usyk has urged Tyson Fury to come out of retirement and fight him for the undisputed world heavyweight title.

He had the chance to fight him and chose not to. “I wanted to win for Great Britain because I know they want me to fight Tyson Fury,” Joshua said. You wanted to fight the elite. You never had the easy fights because you wanted to complete a résumé. “I saw in the eighth round, I saw in AJ’s eyes that he was feeling victorious already. “He’s too good and there’s no shame in it,” he said. Turning to Joshua, he said: “You’ve had to step up to carry the sport in our country. “It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen,” he said. In the later press conference, Usyk dedicated his victory to the people of Ukraine. “I am convinced he wants to fight me.

Despite his best efforts, Anthony Joshua failed to recapture the unified heavyweight titles from Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night, ...

Usyk was AJ’s mandatory challenger for the WBO belt, so Joshua had a choice: Vacate the belt and sidestep Usyk or defend the belt and keep the dream of an undisputed title fight alive. But, in a world where they don’t, Usyk is going to have a ton of mandatory fights and Fury will vacate the WBC belt. However, Usyk is a unified champion and that means multiple organisations will have challengers for him. They can do it anytime and it will sell out a stadium and do enormous pay-per-view numbers. He might be chasing down the undisputed champion, or the belts could be split up and he can target his route. Presumably, Usyk and Fury will fight. Ideally, Fury versus Joshua for all the heavyweight belts was the fight everyone wanted. Or, will WBC Tyson Fury champion give us the first undisputed heavyweight title fight in 19 years? There are a whole host of domestic options for the 32-year-old that start with Joe Joyce. The American is back in action in October against Robert Helenius, so he might not be ready for Joshua’s December outing. However, with both men former world champion coming off consecutive losses, it makes the world of sense. That had the potential to be the biggest money fight in boxing history.
