Tyson Fury is now turning his attention back to Oleksandr Usyk after talks to fight Anthony Joshua have fizzled out yet again.
Recently, Fury slammed Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn, who represents Joshua, for creating issues in making the bout come to fruition. Hearn is now threatening legal action against Zuffa Boxing’s lead man Dana White and TKO after claiming both parties tried luring Joshua to fight Fury behind his back.
Fury uploaded a new video on social media, and it appears he is done with entertaining the Joshua bout yet again. This time, “The Gypsy King” wants a third chance against Usyk,
“So, it looks like AJ has [expletive] his pants yet again,” Fury said. “After 11 years, he’s finally [expletive] his pants yet again. So, this would only lead me to a fight with Oleksandr Usyk. Oleksandr, you, his trainer, and his sensei, and you know he’s a weak-minded piece of [expletive], and he would never fight ‘The Gypsy King,’ which you’ve had the guts to do twice, and you know how difficult it is in there.
“Listen, you got the decisions last time. Fair play to you. Good luck to you, but let’s do it again. Let’s run it back in November. The ball is now in your court, Oleksandr. Do you want to fight me this year in 2026, or are you calling it quits? Let me know because I’m now looking for a new opponent.”
Many question how much interest there would be in Usyk vs. Fury 3. Usyk has defeated Fury twice, and while both fights were competitive, there wasn’t much controversy with the results. Usyk also vacated his heavyweight titles, but he isn’t committing to retirement just yet.
