According to former boxer Amir Khan, Tyson Fury should show Anthony Joshua’s respect, agreeing with him on the show of weighty weight. Fury disconnected his gloves in January this year after the 36-year-old made a shock decision to retire just a few weeks after the second subsequent loss from Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury has retired more than once in his excellent career, to later return to the ring, and Khan thinks that the 36-year-old should re-consider entering the square circle to give the British public fight, which they have desired for years. The former owner of the WBA title also believes that Joshua is a catalyst for Fury’s noisy success and therefore is to blame.
“There is only one fight [Fury] And this is the fight of Anthony Joshua, “38 -year -old Khan, said to Spinbit,” because both fighters are huge names in Great Britain and maybe he should give Anthony Joshua a fight with the audience in Great Britain.
“If you think about it, how did Tyson Fury receive a huge name in boxing? It’s because he was always associated with Joshua. He must give him this respect and because he was associated with Joshua, who was such a star, he helped Tyson Fury, which he is, especially on the Great Britain market.”
Fury previously called his career in 2017, among the dispute with British anti -doping, before he returned in 2018. He also retired after defeating Dillian Whyte in April 2022, returning later in the same year.
Meanwhile, 35-year-old Joshua was outside the ring from the stunning defeat of September with the owner of the title IBF Daniel Dubois. Joshua, like Fury, is a two -time world champion in weighty weight.
The huge fight between the two iconic stars of British boxing has been advertised for several years. However, the fight has never been able to spoil the negotiations stage.
Bob Arum, cooperating Fury, Bob Arum, now believes that the long -awaited fight is now nothing but a dream after the “Gypsy king” does not return to boxing.
“If I were a bookmaker, I would say that he would never fight again,” he told Arum Podcast live with Steve Bunce. “Marvin Hagler had a facial expression -” a wealthy guy who goes to bed in silk pajamas does not get up in the morning to perform road work. “
“Tyson, really, I don’t think to get up in the morning and perform road work and undergo an experience of economic training when he doesn’t have to do it anymore.”
However, Eddie Hearn, who represents AJ, is confident that Fury vs Joshua may soon be reality. The 45-year-old even claimed that generational clash is just a phone call away from materialization.
“This is a kind of fight that is probably made over DM between two or text or conversation,” said Hearn. None of them are masters.
“Both are huge names, both at the back of their career, but more importantly, both are still relatively in the perfect side. It’s like” Look, do you feel like it? “. That’s all.
Hearn is also sure that Joshua will fight again until the end of 2025, but only “one in three fights” remained before he also retires. Joshua currently has a record of 28 wins and four losses. Fury gathered 34 wins, one draw and two overcome his career.
