Fury lashes out at Joshua

Heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury lashes out – and not just at Anthony Joshua, whom he calls a “greedy coward”. His upcoming opponent also gets his comeuppance.

Tyson Fury is back at it again!

The Brit can’t help but insult his opponents ahead of a potential fight. Now, in addition to Anthony Joshua, he also insulted Dillian Whyte as a “coward” and “idiot”.

Reason for the disparaging words: WBC champion Fury wants to fight Oleksandr Ussyk, the WBA, IBF and WBO world champion, to secure all titles at the same time. But Joshua has to clear the way first because he is still entitled to revenge after the defeat against the Ukrainian.

Whyte is in the firing line because he has not yet signed the contract for the fight on 23 April against Fury at Wembley Stadium.

Fury: Joshua is a “greedy coward “

Mostly around the negotiations with Joshua for the planned Fury vs Ussyk showdown and all the world titles, there was a hail of bad language.

Fury was vitriolic towards former world champion Joshua: “He agreed to collect 15 million and forgo the rematch against Ussyk. Then he asks for another 15 million because being the greedy coward that he is, he knows full well that he can’t beat Ussyk. And he realises that he wouldn’t even get the big bucks if he could muster the courage to come up against me. “

But that’s not all. “Basically he’s a phoney who’s blown,” Fury says of Joshua. “There’s still no sign that he’s going to fight Ussyk again – because he doesn’t want the fight. Because he’ll get knocked out again and then he’ll be finished. “

Whyte “would be a coward and an idiot “

Whyte, on the other hand, has not yet accepted the challenge against Fury. There was fire from Fury for that as well.

“I never hated Dillian, my old sparring partner. But he would be a coward and an idiot if he chickened out of this fight. He’s a coward because he’s been hoping for a world championship chance for 1,200 days, which he says he wants at any cost. “

“The biggest payday of his career “

The “Gypsy King” can’t relate and thinks Whyte should rather be grateful. “At eight million, it’s the biggest payday of his career, a windfall. I’ll make sure he’s set for life.”

Whyte would even be in for a bonus of four million pounds should he actually beat Fury. “Like winning the lottery,” Fury thinks.
