AJ Refuses to Commit to Fury Showdown After Public Call-Out
Anthony Joshua has expressed his reluctance to commit to a highly anticipated fight with Tyson Fury, despite the latter's public call-out after his recent win. Joshua stated that he will 'probably' face Fury next, but emphasized the need for official contract negotiations rather than accepting the challenge impulsively. The British heavyweight showdown has been years in the making, with a previous agreement in 2021 being derailed by Deontay Wilder's rematch clause. Joshua insisted that he is not interested in engaging in a war of words, instead preferring to focus on the technical aspects of the fight. He also highlighted his desire to prioritize his personal life, particularly in the wake of a recent car accident that resulted in the loss of his friends. The ball is now in Fury's court, with Joshua asserting that he will only commit to the fight once the terms are formally agreed upon.
