TYSON FURY claims he’s been trying to fight Anthony Joshua for the last SEVEN YEARS and has vowed to “annihilate” him mentally and physically.
The British rivals have desperately tried but failed to get a deal over the line in the past.
And Fury even presented AJ with the chance to settle their score as recently at this September.
But Joshua, 33, instead returns on August 12 in a rematch with Dillian Whyte, which could set up a super-fight against Deontay Wilder.
It has left Fury somewhat in the lurch and venting his frustration.
He told the Out Of Interest podcast: “I’ve been trying to fight Joshua since 2017 but he’s a little bitch, a p***y, so I don’t think you’ll see it.

“To fight a man like me you’ve got to have big b******s, and it you don’t have that, forget about it. Because you can’t even enter my world.
“I will annihilate that motherf****r. Physically, mentally and emotionally. So he ain’t man enough to fight somebody like me.”
Joshua rematches Whyte, 35, at the O2 Arena knowing a loss will KO his blockbuster with Wilder, 37, in Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile Fury, 34, is linked with a crossover bout against ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou, 36.

It is rumoured to be next for the Gypsy King and the man himself confirmed offers have been sent his way.
Fury said: “I think there’s been a lot of talk of me and Ngannou fighting each other.
“He wants to come to boxing and he wants to fight me, he was even at one of my last fights and got up on the ring and confronted me.
“There’s potential. We’ve had a lot of offers from the Middle East at the moment to host that fight over the summer.”
