AJ Refuses to Commit to Fury Fight After Public Challenge

Anthony Joshua has expressed his willingness to fight Tyson Fury, but has refused to commit to the highly anticipated British heavyweight showdown after being called out by his rival. Following Fury's victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov, he immediately challenged Joshua to a fight, but the latter remained non-committal. Joshua stated that he has no problem fighting Fury and will do so when the time is right, but he will not be dictated to and will only agree to the fight through official contract negotiations. The bout between the two British heavyweights has been in the making for years, but has yet to come to fruition. Joshua blamed Fury's approach for the delay, citing his repeated retirements and comebacks. He also emphasized that he is not chasing fame or hype and will fight whoever is in front of him. The fight is expected to happen eventually, but Joshua is not willing to announce it on Fury's terms.
