Steward stated that Joshua might be in attendance at the upcoming fight. Fury, on the other hand, responded by saying, “I don’t think he’ll be there. Have been keeping too scared. I think he’ll stay out of the way. Sorry I’ll be quite and polite. No he may, I don’t think he’ll be here. But I would like to see that fight happen. Tyson’s wanted it.”

She further added, “Whether it was as credible as it was a year ago or two years ago. It’s not. It’s true, Anthony’s lost a few times. And Tyson’s still going on winning.”
