Anthony Joshua Refuses to Commit to Tyson Fury Fight After Public Call-Out

Following Tyson Fury's victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov, he immediately challenged Anthony Joshua to a highly anticipated British heavyweight showdown. However, Joshua refused to commit to the fight on Fury's terms, stating that he will only agree to the bout through official contract negotiations. Joshua expressed his willingness to fight Fury, but emphasized that he is not interested in engaging in a public spectacle. He clarified that he wants to focus on the official negotiations rather than responding to Fury's public challenge. The two boxing giants have been expected to face each other for years, but a bout has yet to materialize. Joshua cited his priority is to tend to personal matters following a recent car accident and the loss of his friends. He asserted that when he is ready, Fury will know, and the fight will happen on his terms.
