After beating Joshua on points, Usyk called out The Gypsy King.
He stated that he was certain Tyson Fury wasn't yet retired. He wants to fight me, that's what I'm certain of.
"I want him to fight me and if Tyson Fury is not fighting me, then I'm not fighting at any."
Negotiations are underway for the bout with potential venues including Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
