Tyson Fury’s telling response yards away from Anthony Joshua’s brutal knockout
Tyson Fury appeared shocked after Anthony Joshua dropped Francis Ngannou simply meters away from him within the early hours of Saturday morning.

Speaking on Friday, a few potential bout, Fury mentioned: “There’s fairly a protracted technique to go, there’s at all times been quite a lot of s*** getting in the best way of it. I’ve bought larger fish to fry – 18 May, then now we have a rematch in October.
“After that, if he’s still available and I’m available, let’s get it on. Yes, it goes both ways; he can do what he wants, whoever he fights, he can’t wait a year. Inactivity is no good. After I beat Usyk, the IBF [title] will be vacant, so maybe he can fight [Filip] Hrgovic.”
