Tyson Fury claims Anthony Joshua is backing out of their much-anticipated all-British heavyweight boxing showdown and has challenged Oleksandr Usyk to a trilogy fight, throwing the planned Fury-Joshua clash into doubt.

In an expletive-laden video posted on Instagram on Sunday, Fury, 38, claimed Joshua was pulling out of the fight.

Fury and Joshua have been locked in talks over a long-awaited meeting, but the “Gypsy King” is impatient with the lack of confirmation, calling his rival a “coward” last week.

In a string of videos posted over the past week, Fury claimed that Joshua’s lack of response and indecision on the venue have cast doubts over the fight.
