Tyson Fury is trending all over since his fight with Dillian Whyte got confirmed. The Briton fighter had heavy aspirations of fighting for the undisputed title. But Whyte had the WBC interim strap, and Fury’s promoters won the purse bids for this fight. That said, Fury only has Dillian Whyte as his next opponent on the line.

Regardless of that, his verbal assault towards his top rivals, Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua, seems far from concluding. That said, Fury was under heavy fire a few days back for not wanting to confront Usyk. Citing that, he recently came up with an answer.

Speaking to iFL TV, he said, “I’d fight Usyk seven days a week, 62 times on a Sunday in his backyard. I’ll fight Usyk, and I’ll fight Joshua on the same night. I don’t value them. They’re bums compared to me.”

“So as far avoiding somebody, I’ve just fought Deontay Wilder three times. Think I’m bothered about some middleweight or some bodybuilder? please, I’ll annihilate them.”

Tyson Fury always remained assertive on fighting Usyk or Joshua. However, the latter’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, went after ‘The Gypsy King’ for avoiding Oleksandr Usyk. Now, Fury has a fight in contention post which he’ll only look to battle his rivals, either Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk.
