John Fury Sends a Fiery Warning to Eddie Hearn and Anthony Joshua

Everyone in the combat sports fraternity is desperately awaiting the gigantic heavyweight collision between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury. The hard-hitting heavyweights have signed on the dotted line to make their fight official, but the tentative dates and location for this bout are not finalized yet.

Recently, the ‘Gypsy King’s father, John Fury, issued a fierce warning to Anthony Joshua and his promoter Eddie Hearn, asking them to stage this fight by June 2021.

In a video shared by Michael Benson, he said:

“This is a video to Eddie Hearn and all the supporters of ‘AJ’. We’re not bothered about Anthony Joshua…If he wants to fight in June, get it ready for June Eddie. We’ll take him as a warm-up fight…And if you can’t put up, shut up! Do that.”

Tyson Fury last fought in February 2020 against the ex-WBC champ Deontay Wilder. He handed over the Alabama native, his first loss in the most sensational fashion. Right from the first second of the fight, Fury dictated the pace and only moved forward with his shots.

As a result, the ‘Bronze Bomber’ succumbed to a brutal T/KO loss in round 7.

Ever since that win, the ‘Gypsy King’ and his team have been waiting to get their hands on ‘AJ’ for a mammoth undisputed title fight. And with John Fury’s comments, it’s clear that Tyson Fury’s corner is ready for the undisputed title fight.

Is Anthony Joshua a ‘warm-up’ fight for the ‘Gypsy King’?

Anthony Joshua ranks among the most intimidating heavyweights of all time. In his short but storied professional career, ‘AJ’ has cemented himself as an altogether different pugilist in the most dynamic division of boxing. He has danced with some bigwigs of the heavyweight roster inside the ring and has battered all of them to add constant wins to his resume.

That said, he will walk into the Tyson Fury fight with his best skill sets. And Fury might end up in serious problems if he underestimates his countryman.

This fight holds immense responsibilities to shape up the division and the best man on fight night will establish his reign for many more years to come.
