Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are set to clash with each other in Saudi Arabia this summer. The fight will crown the division’s first undisputed champion since 1999, and the burden does not faze Tyson. He promises to quit on his stool if he fails to K.O. Anthony within three rounds.
Tyson took to social media to share his thoughts about the match. He said, “While I’m on a rant I might as well call out one more person. A big useless dosser; not a real fighting man, a hype job, bodybuilder, cross-fit, big ugly s**house, that’s Anthony Joshua.
AJ, if you’re out there let’s make this fight happen you, big dosser, you big s***house bum dosser, I’m going to smash your face in too and there’s not one thing you can do about it. Prove me wrong sucker, prove me wrong; I’m number one.”
He further said, “I’ve just been thinking, AJ, if you go past three rounds with me I’ll quit in the corner, that’s how confident I am of taking you out in the first two or three rounds.”

Joshua, and Fury, signed to fight each other in March, with promoters left to agree to a date and venue. Anthony’s backer Eddie Hearn revealed both agreed on a site deal, in Saudi Arabia, with three-weekend spots to choose from. But Fury’s US promoter Bob Arum threw doubt over the unification, claiming to have not spoken to Hearn for weeks.
We then expected a second fight to take place in the UK in December with the winner of the first bout earning 60 percent of the purse.
