Tyson Fury calls out three heavyweights to UK stadium fights including Anthony Joshua and only Brit to ever beat him


TYSON FURY still has unfinished business to take care of in his boxing career.

Fury is currently in talks to fight Oleksandr Usyk in what would be the heavyweight division’s first four-belt unification bout.

It comes after Anthony Joshua was twice beaten by Usyk, 35, freezing him out of the title picture.

Fury, 34, still has a Battle of Britain bout against Joshua, 33, in his mind and fancies a stadium sellout in the future.

But AJ is not the only one the Gypsy King wants to settle his score with, pointing to retired pair David Price, 39, and David Haye, 42.

Price famously beat Fury in their 2006 amateur bout and pipped him to a spot in the 2008 Team GB Olympic squad.

Fury told iFL TV: “I wonder if it would still sell out a stadium if me and big old David Price had a fight.

“Even though he’s retired, Old Trafford or Anfield I think we sell it out for the WBC World Heavyweight title.

“Or even if the WBC wouldn’t sanction it, we could do it for the North West title of Great Britain.

“The rivalry was that big for so long, and he was the only British person to ever beat me, amateur or pro. I think it’d sell out.”

Fury has still not forgiven Haye for twice pulling out of their proposed pay-per-view fight set for 2013 and then 2014.

And he took the opportunity to mock his ex-rival for using a broken toe as an excuse for losing to Wladimir Klitschko in 2011.

Fury said: “I also think that a fight with the toe breaker would sell a stadium out. Do you think me and him [David Haye] would still sell out?

“There’s still three big rivalry fights in this country for me. Even though they ain’t active or whatever. David Price, David Haye Anthony Joshua. Three…

“So if you’re out there and I know you’re still out there and I know you’re still in the gym.

“I still think three of them fights sell out a stadium, and I really do mean that. It’s all about the ‘what if?’ isn’t it?”
