Tyson Fury has slammed Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk over what he perceives to be cowardice when it comes to stepping into the ring.
It had appeared that Fury and Joshua were simply a pair of signatures away from agreeing to a December 3 fight date at the Principality Stadium, with contracts being sent out last week. However, time is not on their side, and promoter Eddie Hearn has admitted he was not expecting the contract that he was sent initially from Fury's team.
However, Hearn insisted talks were moving in a positive direction as recently as yesterday, which appears to contrast with Fury's take on the situation. The world heavyweight champion has taken to Twitter to slam Joshua, as well as fellow champion Usyk, branding the "s***houses" in a foul-mouth rant accusing them of trying to avoid fights with him.
