Joshua Attacks Fury, Wilder

Joshua Attacks Fury, Wilder

Having successfully defended his IBF and WBA titles against Carlos Takam last month, Joshua has voiced a desire to unify the division.

He sent tweets to WBO champion Joseph Parker and WBC title-holder Deontay Wilder, as well as taunting fellow Briton Tyson Fury, who has not fought since November 2015 due to fitness and mental health issues.

Joshua, 28, sent New Zealand’s Parker a GIF of Kermit the Frog drinking tea, along with the message,  “@joeboxerparker Sips tea, continues to read tweets and refreshes email.. Still No Offer.”

He sent Wilder, known as the ‘Bronze Bomber’, a link to an 18-minute YouTube interview in which he spoke of his desire to fight the American, who has said he would be prepared to fight Joshua in Britain.

In an accompanying tweet, Joshua wrote,  “A little word on the @BronzeBomber fight. Ready and waiting for the offer.”

His third and final tweet, sent to Fury, read,  “and @Tyson_Fury get fit you fat f***.”

Joshua complained on Wednesday that potential opponents were happy to talk up the possibility of fighting him without attempting to make a bout happen.

He said his promoter, Eddie Hearn, was flying to the United States to try to strike a deal to fight Wilder.




Any potential fight between Fury and Joshua would be the biggest fight in boxing history, according to Telegraph.co.uk.

Fury had a retort of his own, replying on Instagram to Joshua,  “Message to you live and direct. I do not care about yo.! Like I told you before I’ll punch your face. Fighting to me is easy and slapping punks like you is even easier. Good to see Eddie (Hearn) has let you of your leash for the day. But he better put you back on before you get bitten.”

Fury had also claimed Joshua had defeated a ‘glorified midget’ in his fight against Takam. The rebuke from Joshua, who does drop the F-bomb from time it time in interviews, was a clear message of intent.
