Tyson Fury has declared to UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya that under no circumstances will he step into the octagon in his latest U-turn.
The world heavyweight boxing champion has previously insisted he would be willing to make his cage debut in order to face a multitude of UFC champions, but later switched that to a hybrid rules boxing bout. Now, however, he claims he will never have a fight in the octagon amid his recent feud with Jon Jones.
Heavyweight champion Jones is no stranger to Adesanya, previously indicating that he would have been interested in defending his light-heavyweight belt against the Nigerian. That bout never materialised and the American pumped up to heavyweight, where he has now found himself in a rift with Fury.
