Anthony Joshua took to Instagram today to put Tyson Fury under pressure to meet him in the ring. It is a fight for which the two-time champion of heavyweight Joshua (28-4, 25 COs) and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, have been pushing hard for the past year.
Joshua’s Instagram press
So far, ‘The Gypsy King’ Fury (34-2-1, 24 COs) has resisted and understandable. He has lost his last two battles against Oleksandr utility, and his level of confidence must be at a low point.
Fury, 37, recently confirmed his decision to stay retired, and told Sky Sports that he had seen “gray” in his beard. It will require an attitude change for Fury to return to the ring to tackle Joshua.
“I’m proud of Joseph Parker. Although he is a participant, Real Real Real Real. He is in the game to fight whoever, whenever, is the DNA of a real general, unlike his Dippy mate, Tyson Fury, ‘said Anthony Joshua Instagram today. “I would dissect his career record in minutes, but I would leave it for a potential gloves if he ever returned and” Big Femi “fight.”
It doesn’t look good for what Hearn ‘calls the Battle of Britain’ fight between Joshua and Fury. ‘The Gypsy King’ made no mention to come out of pension to fight AJ. He just mentioned that he wanted to avenge his two defeats against Oleksandr Ulsyk, which he still stubbornly insisted, were unfair decisions.
The financial lure
Fury’s net value is estimated between $ 160 million and $ 200 million. The lure from a payday to $ 100 million to fight Joshua may not be enough for him to take the risk of possibly embarrassing by striking his fans. If he was still off and out, none of the Nouveau Riche class, I believe he would take the battle with Joshua in a second if he was even offered a fraction of the $ 100 million.
‘Fabio Wardley, also respects you. Bro worked in recruitment and helped your father a few years ago to get a job. Let it be a proof of God rooting in one’s favor and a statement to show that nothing is impossible (if you can have a scrap, haha), ‘says Joshua.
The WBA-TUs-Time Heavyweight Champion Wardley (19-0-1, 18 CO’s) is having a major fight against WBO Tussentage Champion Parker (36-3, 24 COs) next month on October 25 in the O2 Arena in London, England. The event is displayed directly on Dazn PPV.
There is a possibility that the winner of the fight to the world champion status could be raised if the undisputed champion Oleksandr utility prefers not to defend the belts. Ideally, utility will return to his injury breakfast to face the victor of the competition, but it is questionable, given the likely wage reduction he would take from his last two profitable fights against Fury.
“For my supporters, I will be back to pull my boots up and put on my gloves sooner than later and hopefully hit Fury’s head and with ease to dance his flashing stitch,” Joshua says.
Hearn is hopeful for a battle between Joshua and Jake Paul in early 2026 and considered it a career high for AJ if it happens. It may depend on whether Paul Gervonta Davis defeated in their battle on November 14, 2025 in the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. A loss for Jake against the much smaller tank Davis would see much of the interest of fans in the Joshua-Paul battle in 2026.
