After Anthony Joshua’s defeat in the rematch, Fury gave an opportunity to him. He offered AJ to square off with him at the Wembley Stadium, for the WBC title in December. In return, Joshua asked ‘The Gypsy King’ to bring the deal to the table.
No one knows what happened backstage, but a few days later, another update informed AJ has agreed to the terms of Fury.

Now again, Fury is moving ahead of this fight. He has given an ultimatum to the former unified heavyweight champion. As soon as this update circulated on social media, it captured fans’ attention. They criticized Fury’s move because since announcing his comeback, Joshua would be the third fighter. Fury called and now move away from him.
How did fans react to Tyson Fury?
A fan wrote, “Absolute fraud this bloke. The contract was sent about a week ago. When have you have heard of a super fight being made in the space of a week. He did this to make the public think he wanted it.”
No doubt, Fury wants everything on his terms without understanding the other person. He needs to give some more time to Joshua to introspect over it.
