OLEKSANDR USYK has hit back after Tyson Fury claimed he could beat the Ukrainian AND Anthony Joshua in the same night.
Fury mocked his heavyweight rivals following Usyk’s rematch win on points against AJ in Saudi Arabia.
Fury said: “After watching that, the both of them were s***e. It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen.
“It was bulls***. Come on! I’d beat annihilate both of them on the same night. F***ing s***e.
“Get your f***ing chequebook out because the Gypsy King is here to stay, forever.”
Usyk, who wants to face Fury in an undisputed decider, had a blunt response.

He quipped: “That’s what he’s dreaming every day. I’m gonna beat his ass.”
Fury, 34, announced his retirement from boxing in April after knocking out Dillian Whyte, also 34.
But it has not taken him long to be tempted back, following Usyk’s win over Joshua – his second in 11 months.
It would promise the sport’s first ever four-belt heavyweight unification.

And Usyk, 35, appeared to suggest he would be the one walking away if he cannot face Fury.
He revealed: “I’m sure that Tyson Fury is not retired yet.
“I’m sure, I’m convinced he wants to fight me. I want to fight him and if I’m not fighting Tyson Fury, I’m not fighting at all.”
