WBC Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is known for publically getting into a war of words with other people on a regular basis. This has made him one of the most vocal trash talkers in the sport and does not think twice before calling someone out. Moreover, Fury’s recent victim is none other than talkSPORT Host, Simon Jordan who was recently called out by the champion for criticizing him.

It all started when Jordan commented on the purse of the Oleksandr Usyk fight. It is worth mentioning that ‘The Gypsy King’ offered his rival a 70-30 split in revenue for their upcoming fight. According to Jordan, this was not fair as he stated that people will turn on Fury if he keeps adding more roadblocks to the fight. However, Fury responded with a rant calling out Jordan and even taking some personal shots at his business. Despite this, Jordan also fired back at Fury officially beginning the rivalry between the two.

In an Instagram video, Jordan first played the footage of Fury taking shots at him. “Simon Jordan you’re a little b****, no wonder you lost £100 million b****, wrong business you little sausage,” said Fury. Jordan then went on to address this situation stating that Fury had accidentally tagged Simon Cowell instead of him. Moreover, he even made fun of  ‘The Gypsy King’ moniker that Fury proudly touts.

“He’s a wally, isn’t he? Never mind ‘Gypsy King’, he’s the gormless king, he tagged Simon Cowell, he’s feeble-minded sometimes,” said Jordan. This was not all, as Fury clapped back at this video from Jordan and also had a few words to say to the talkSPORT Host.

Fury shared Jordan’s video on his Instagram Story and was quick to dismiss the journalist. He stated that he is the best Heavyweight champion ever and should be respected in that way. Moreover, he claimed that he made the news outlet a lot of money but was not thanked. “You should be championing me, as I’m the best Heavyweight in history. 2x undefeated world champ! Also I make TalkSport a s*** ton of cash b****!” he wrote.

Meanwhile, the current unified Heavyweight champion has beaten Anthony Joshua twice and is itching to face Fury even accepting his 70-30 demand with some conditions. Now, it is up to Fury to finalize the bout and prove that he indeed is the best ever
