TYSON FURY vowed that he would knock out Anthony Joshua 'just to bants', and claimed he would OBLITERATE Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury had been in negotiations to fight AJ last year, but was finally ordered into his contracted tri-fight with Deontay wilder. He won round 11.
Tyson Fury promised to knock Anthony Joshua out 'just for bants.'
Joshua was defeated by Usyk two weeks prior, ending any hopes of the blockbuster Battle of Britain.
Fury said that he is open to a fight with AJ and told DubaiEyeSport, "I don't know what to think anymore about Anthony Joshua."
"Frankly, no one cares anymore about him." "But I'll just knock him out for his bants."
Fury, 33 years old, will now face Dillian Whyte (WBC mandatory challenger), in his next fight.
Negotiations with Usyk (35), for an undisputed title decider ended in a stalemate when Joshua, 32, couldn't agree to a step-aside agreement.
Fury was asked whether the Ukrainian opponent is more dangerous than Wilder, 36. Wilder was the man Fury drew with in 2018, but beat twice in subsequent rematches.

"He did not do any damage to Anthony Joshua, and certainly ain’t doing any damage to me." He'll be destroyed."
In his two last fights against Wilder, Fury changed his tactics and chose to be aggressive rather than boxing smart from the outside.
He claimed that either approach will work against Whyte, and that the decision will be made on how to proceed with the night.
Fury stated that she does whatever feels right for her at the time. To be fair, I don't pay too much attention to these bums.
"Whatever I feel like that night. I can beat Whyte in any style. Even if I have one hand behind my head and one foot on the floor, I can still beat Whyte."
