The drama in the heavyweight division intensified when Deontay Wilder won his arbitration case against Tyson Fury. As a result, Fury had to abandon his undisputed title bout against Anthony Joshua and face ‘The Bronze Bomber.’

However, this announcement brought heaps of criticism on Tyson Fury and his team. ‘AJ’ and his team accused Fury and his team of being the cause of the collapse of the fight. And now, Fury has retaliated against those comments and given his side of the story.

The 30-0-1 boxer spoke to the DailyMail and said, “It seemed that every Saturday for months he announced the fight would be finalized the next week. That was pretty stupid. It’s all about ego. Power trips. Then it’s egg on the face. That’s what happens when you talk too much.”

Thus, this comment showed that ‘The Gypsy King’ feels Hearn and ‘AJ’ should not have given away so much before they signed anything. He then accused them of purposely delaying the bout. “Even when I gave a deadline, they kept dragging it back. Joshua had his winter fight. Despite that, I still agreed to August 14, even though that would have been me out of the ring for 19 months. They were up to their magic trickery again,” said Fury.

The comments from the WBC champion showed that he is not happy with Hearn and Joshua not getting any of the blame. Moreover, his comments showed Fury feels the pair brought this on themselves by delaying the fight. However, he also spoke about how he is getting on with all this.

“How did that work out, gentlemen? I’m fine. I’m back on the Vegas Strip, in the first heavyweight trilogy fight since Holyfield-Bowe and Ali-Frazier before that. They knew all along that the legal arbitration was in process and now they’re left with Joshua stuck between a rock and a hard place.”
