Anthony Joshua has accused Tyson Fury of "lying" about the collapse of his undisputed heavyweight title fight with Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury was pencilled-in to face fellow heavyweight champion Usyk in December on the same card as Joshua vs Deontay Wilder, but the fight fell through again after also being targeted for the end of April. Fury and Usyk's teams have pointed the finger at each other, but Joshua put the blame on his domestic rival while speaking at the press conference for his rematch against Dillian Whyte.
"You've seen the shenanigans in the heavyweight division even with Fury saying he was training for Usyk. SugarHill [Steward] come out and said 'I’m not training him, what do you mean I’m training him for a heavyweight championship fight?' You can see all of the lies that have been going on, so I don't waste my time with time wasters," Joshua said.
