TYSON FURY rubbed in his status as the only unbeaten heavyweight king by mocking his rivals.
The Gypsy King, 31, took to social media on Tuesday afternoon to remind Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, Dillian Whyte and Andy Ruiz Jr of their defeats.

Fury posted a collage of himself wearing a crown surrounded by the other four fighters and the ‘stay at home’ symbol.
He wrote: “The below 4 all have the same in common, ALL LOST,” followed by a laughing emoji.
Fury inflicted the first blot on Wilder’s copybook in February by stunning the Bronze Bomber.
His seventh-round victory – one of the most emphatic performances EVER by a British boxer – ensured he ripped the WBC belt away from Wilder to become world champion again.
He also claimed the vacant The Ring magazine and lineal titles as he took his pro record to 30-0-1 with that draw against Wilder when they met for the first time in 2018.
The pair are due to meet for a trilogy fight later in 2020, with a date in early October looking the most likely.
Joshua, 30, holds the other belts.
The Watford-born KO king did lose them in June last year with his shock defeat in New York to Ruiz Jr – the only one of his career.
But AJ made no mistake in Saudi Arabia in the rematch to win back his WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO titles at the end of 2019.
That fight ensured Ruiz Jr suffered his second defeat inside the ring – the first came in December 2016 at the hands of Joseph Parker as they fought for the WBO heavyweight belt.
And finally Fury’s fellow Brit Whyte’s record stands at 27-1.
The Body Snatcher’s only taste of defeat came against Joshua in December 2015 with a seventh-round knockout.
Since then, though, he has won 11 out of 11 and picked up the WBC International, British, WBC Silver and WBC interim heavyweight titles.
He is set to defend them against Alexander Povetkin on July 4 after their original date on May 2 had to be pushed back.
As well as boasting about his blemish-free record, Fury also shared with his 3.7million Instagram followers what he is getting up to during the lockdown, including advertising his online training session with wife Paris and the grub he has been enjoying during his well-earned time off.
