AJ tells Fury: Take on Chisora in £2m fight or wait to face me after Usyk


ANTHONY JOSHUA has told Tyson Fury to put up his £2million offer to fight Derek Chisora, or shut up about another comeback.

AJ’s 258 management team are now helping guide 38-year-old Del Boy’s Indian Summer career.

And Fury, 34, has been chasing them for a trilogy fight with the fans’ favourite veteran he has already beaten twice.

Not many fans are interested in the clash, with supposedly retired Fury the self-appointed No1 heavyweight in the world.

But the Gypsy King has still been clogging up his social media channels with taunts over a possible deal with the Finchley slugger.

And 32-year-old AJ, who is a long-time friend of Chisora, says old enemy Fury needs to stop having fun at their expense and show them some funds.

“All the negotiations are all being aired online,” Joshua said ahead of his Oleksadnr Usyk rematch.

“£2m is a lot of money but it is alright saying it, we need to see it.”

The Ring Magazine belt will be up in the air –  alongside the WBA, IBF and WBO straps, when the Ukraine mastermind and Watford hulk clash in Jeddah – after Fury relinquished the celebrated gong.

The undefeated 6ft 9in Morecambe genius still holds the WBC’s version of the heavyweight world title.

But he has been set a deadline to confirm his future plans before he loses that one and well and AJ can chase down the vacant version of the one belt he has never owned.

He said: “He has a week after Saturday  and then you will find out if he is really retired.

“He has said he is retired but you will know officially on the 26th or 27th.”
