Anthony Joshua has dismissed Tyson Fury's offer to train him for his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, despite hailing his rival's boxing knowledge.
Joshua will meet Usyk this summer as he seeks to steal back his unified crown in Saudi Arabia. 'AJ' recently drafted in American trainer Robert Garcia to replace long-term coach Rob McCracken for the second instalment of his rivalry with Usyk.
Fury had offered to train Joshua in the past alongside his father John in Morecambe when news broke of his rival's plans to shake up his corner. The 'Gypsy King' recently doubled down on his plan, telling Queensberry Promotions : 'Without trying to slate AJ or anything, because he has done well, he has had a great career, he doesn’t have the engine to box for twelve rounds.
