The former world champion was offended by both the behavior and statements of his countryman.
Anthony Joshua really wants Oleksandr Usyk to be the undisputed world champion. However, he wants Usik not only to beat the Briton Tyson Fury in a fight, but to cripple him.
According to the British boxer, he was very hurt by the statements of his compatriot who had previously spoken to him.
“Of course, I don’t want Fury to look like a hater. But I don’t respect him, I don’t respect him for what he says, for the speeches he always gives. In general, he says a lot of things, so I want to knock his jaw out in this fight,” – Boxing News 24 quotes Joshua.
We remind you that the Usyk-Fury fight was supposed to take place on February 17, but Fury received a cut in sparring. Because of this, the match was postponed to May 18.
In the past, Fury has said he could die fighting Usik.
