ANTHONY JOSHUA knows that negotiations over any future fight with Tyson Fury will be ‘a nightmare’.
Big Josh has watched on like every other boxing fan as Fury’s proposed clash with Oleksandr Usyk, the man who took AJ’s WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight titles, has fallen apart.
The Gypsy King continued to move the goal posts, according to Team Usyk, despite the Ukrainian accepting a 70-30 purse split for the first fight.
Joshua had his own problems dealing with Fury at the end of last year as the pair tried to thrash out a Battle of Britain.
That fight collapsed with Fury insisting deadlines were not met from Joshua’s side – but with AJ and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, claiming those deadlines were impossible to meet.
A fight between WBC champion Fury (below, left) and Joshua at one time seemed inevitable.
