Fury claimed that Usyk refused to fight him, but Usyk refuted this claim.

Usyk said he never avoided a fight with anyone, even if it meant sacrificing his personal reputation.

On Behind The Gloves, Usyk stated that "He's lying. I never duck anyone." I will fight him if he asks.

"I have never dared to duck anyone in my entire career."

"Even though I had to travel to Moscow, Russia, and the situation between the countries was very tight I could have huge problems in my country. Even then, I went Russia in Moscow and I fought and showed everyone what I was capable [by beating Murat gassiev].

Fury's father John was a bare-knuckle boxer so calling out The Gyspsy Kings for such a contest might not be wise.

However, there has been much trash talk among the heavyweight boxing camps in the past few weeks.

Eddie Hearn, AJ's promoter, claimed that Fury declined the Usyk fight because he wanted a warm-up fight first - which will be against Dillian Whyte April 23.

The Gypsy King retorted at the statement, claiming that he could beat Joshua or Usyk on one night. Instead, they will fight for a rematch sometime this year.

Fury would normally respond to Usyk's reply, but the WBC heavyweight champion is currently on a media blackout.

Fury, however, predicted another victory for Joshua before he could fall silent.

After slamming the Brit's long-term mentor Rob McCracken, Usyk offered to train Joshua.
