AJ Refuses to Commit to Fury Fight After Public Call-Out
Anthony Joshua has stated he will likely face Tyson Fury in his next bout, but has refused to commit to the highly anticipated match after Fury's public call-out following his recent victory. Joshua, who watched Fury's win over Arslanbek Makhmudov at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, was challenged by Fury to a 'Battle of Britain' showdown, but he declined to immediately accept the fight. Instead, Joshua emphasized that he wants to negotiate the terms of the bout through official channels rather than in the heat of the moment. This potential matchup between two of Britain's greatest heavyweights has been years in the making, but has yet to come to fruition due to various setbacks, including a previously planned bout in 2021 being derailed by Deontay Wilder's rematch clause. Joshua expressed his willingness to fight Fury but on his own terms, stating, 'I'm the boss, you work for me.' The fight is expected to happen, but the timing and details remain to be determined.
