Anthony Joshua doesn’t seem bothered about his undisputed fight against Tyson Fury falling apart from the brink of confirmation.

Nevertheless, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn has appeared positive in this controversial situation. He has also revealed the unified champion’s reaction to the whole issue.

“With the Pulev fight, the first one falling through probably 10 days before. And he just said to me, listen go and do your work. He [Anthony Joshua] said you are the man to take care of it. Over to you, I’ll be in the gym. Let me know.”
