Michael Benson from TalkSport posted Joshua’s statement on Twitter. Joshua seemed indifferent toward a fight with Tyson Fury. And it is safe to say that he is the least bothered by not fighting against Tyson Fury. But it is something the fans would love to see so that they can answer the question of who is the best.

Joshua said he is not waiting for Fury and even called him a ‘geezer.’ He further said he would not regret his boxing career if Tyson Fury is not on it. ‘AJ’ claimed that if Fury is in for a fight against him. He is in for it, too. The chances for this fight’s fruition seem thin because Fury vowed never to fight Joshua last year.

The boxing world expected the duo to fight last year. And the negotiations went on for months. But didn’t reach any positive conclusions, and the fight fell apart. Notably, Joshua will be stepping into the ring on April 1. And, ‘Gypsy King’ is also expected to make a comeback inside the ring this year. We cannot rule the possibility of a boxing match out between the two. But fans should not keep their hopes high. Joshua’s fans went wild after reading this statement.
