TYSON FURY has accused Oleksandr Usyk of “running” from their now-dead undisputed heavyweight showdown.
The first undisputed heavyweight title fight in nearly a quarter-of-a-century fell through on Wednesday after weeks of failed negotiations.
Unified champion Usyk agreed to Fury’s outrageous purse demands but the mouthwatering bout still failed to come to fruition, with a rematch clause being one of the main reasons why.
And a frustrated Fury took to Instagram on Thursday to say: “Uysk, you proper little s***bag, bog-eyed, gappy-teethed, ugly little rat b*****d
“You little slimy f****r.
“[You] tried all week to get out of it [the fight] begging for the rematch.

“You proper little s***bag, bog-eyed, gappy-teethed, ugly little rat b*****d.
“You tried all week to get to it, begging like a little girl. You got your rematch and you didn’t even want to fight at that.
“You little s***house p***y.
“Always know, p***y, that you were never man enough to tangle with the Gypsy King ever in your life, you little s***thouse.

“You little 14-stone coward.
“You little s***bag, you rat little b*****d.
“Your full team know as well and all the lawyers have got [the] full information.”
Usyk, 36, will probably now defend his titles against mandatory WBA title challenger Daniel Dubois in a fight Fury was quick to mock.
He added: “You little ugly b*****d, keep running. Fight Dubois at the Copper Box, s**t bag.
“And always know you, or anybody else like ya, could ever tangle with the Gypsy King.”

Boxing fans are hopeful of a miracle to save the pair’s proposed April 29 showdown at Wembley, although Fury’s co-promoter Frank Warren insists the fight is dead in the water.
He told the BBC: “They said the fight must take place before 29 April and if it goes later they want different splits.
“The reason they did that was they didn’t think Tyson would be ready for the 29th and suddenly Tyson was ready for it.
“He has been in training camp for two-and-a-half weeks, got trainers in from America and they looked for a way to get out.”

He added: “There is an established rota of who Usyk has to defend against.
“That’s why after the 29th it goes away.”
