Paris Fury fires dig at Anthony Joshua as she casts doubt on him ever fighting husband Tyson in Battle of Britain


PARIS FURY reckons hubby Tyson will never share the ring with rival Anthony Joshua.

A shock December dust-up was seemingly on the cards when the Gypsy King offered AJ a shock world title lifeline after seeing his fellow Brit lose to Oleksandr Usyk in August.

But negotiations failed to bear fruit and led to Fury renewing his rivalry with Derek Chisora, who he battered for ten rounds on Saturday night.

And Paris believes the biggest fight in the history of British boxing will never come to fruition.

When asked if she thinks the fight will ever happen, she told iFL TV:” Personally, no. I always doubted it anyway, so I still don’t think it’ll come along.

“Because I think by the time the unification fight happens, people who are willing and jumping to take the fight, take their fights.

“Joshua’s going to be a long way down that list.”

Fury, 34, lamented a long-awaited showdown with Joshua falling through after putting a beating on old pal Chisora.

When asked if he thinks he’ll ever share the ring with AJ, he told iFL TV: “Nope.

“Because man’s a sausage and it should have been him here tonight – but he had poor old Derek take a good hiding again stepping in his boots.”

Joshua was quick to accept Fury’s shock offer in September but refused to be embroiled in a public back-and-forth.

But Fury believes AJ remained radio silent in order to avoid taking a hiding.

He said: “He’s a coward.

“If Joshua was gonna fight me, he would’ve took like $40 million to do it on the 3rd of December.

“And instead, he s**t himself and run away like a little b***h.

“But I don’t blame him because I was gonna spank his little ass all over the TV.

“And he wouldn’t have been able to walk around with his muscles and all that s**t.”

Fury is now targeting a multi-million-pound undisputed heavyweight title fight with unified champion Usyk.

Joshua, meanwhile, looks set to return to the ring in March – with a grudge match against Dillian Whyte a distinct possibility.
