      Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will NEVER fight and Gypsy King returning against Derek Chisora is ‘poor for the sport’

      by

      BOXING fans have been warned Tyson Fury will NEVER fight Anthony Joshua… and his return against Derek Chisora is “poor for the sport”.Fury and AJ were engaged in shock talks over a December 3 Battle of Britain at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.

      But alas, the negotiations were short lived and opposing promoters soon went back to pointing the finger.
      The all-too familiar story leaves boxer-turned-trainer Dave Coldwell fearing the nation’s two biggest stars may never settle the score in the ring.
      Coldwell said in the Daily Mail: “Unfortunately, we’re now left with what appears to be a Ricky Hatton vs Junior Witter situation, though obviously on a much bigger scale. 
      “At the time in Britain we all wanted to see that, but it never happened.

      “We all wanted to see Joe Calzaghe vs Carl Froch, that never happened either. I think this is the next one in that line.
      “I don’t think it will happen. I think we’ve missed the window for it, I really do.”
      Fury, 34, turned his attention to Chisora, 38, after talks with Joshua, 32, broke down.
      That is despite twice already beating the heavyweight veteran in one-sided fashion, in 2011 and 2014.

      It leaves Coldwell – who formerly coached Chisora – criticising Fury’s decision, having seemingly also snubbed Joe Joyce, 37.
      He said: “It’s poor for the division and it’s poor for the sport.
      “And what it shows is that Fury obviously isn’t bothered about who he’s fighting.
      “If he was, Mahmoud Charr – another joke of an option – would not have been considered. 
      “There are plenty of other fighters out there – you only have to look as far as Queensberry stablemate Joe Joyce.
      “I’m not saying Joyce would beat him; I’m not saying anyone would beat him, but at least it would be more interesting. 
      “But if you’re not getting Joshua or Usyk, and you’re simply looking for a fight to tide you over, you’re not going to take on an absolute terminator who just keeps coming, like Joyce. 
      “He’s gone for the easy option.”

      It is an eliminator for the WBC title, held by Fury, with the winner then facing Andy Ruiz Jr, 33, to become mandatory challenger.
      So Wilder, 36, has three huge names lined up for next year, providing he beats Helenius, 38, at the Barclays Center.
      He told FightHype: “You got the Usyks, Ruiz, Joshuas – they’re the top three guys that people want to see, especially Joshua.
      “That’s the number one fight in the world for me, me and him.

      “Everywhere I go all I hear is people say me and Joshua, and that’s the number one fight for them as well.
      “With that being said, if that is the number one fight in the world for me then that’s what I want.”
      Joshua, 32, is coming off consecutive losses to Usyk, 35, who is lined up for a unification with Fury, 34, next year.
      It leaves AJ set for a comeback fight on December 17, while Fury is in talks to face Derek Chisora, 38, who he beat in 2011 and 2013.

      It comes as VanZant prepares for her comeback in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship.
      Next up in the ring is her third bare-knuckle fight – scheduled for Denver this month after two losses.
      And she has wowed fans by lifting huge weights in her workout routine.
      A contest against MMA rival Charis Sigala as the co-main event of BKFC’s London debut in August was cancelled.

      And she defended herself on Instagram to stress the call-off wasn’t her fault.
      VanZant, 28, wrote: “I did not pull [out] from my fight!!!! I was pulled! I am p****d off and heartbroken.
      “I worked my f***ing ass off to be pulled a week before I am supposed to compete.”
      VanZant is also considering more acting after her movie debut alongside TikToker Bryce Hall in the summer.

      She played a pro fighter in a horror film produced by boxing promotion Triller.
      But VanZant’s career in pro wrestling promotion AEW has been thrown into doubt after he coach stopped training her.
      Ex-WWE star Gangrel told K&S Wrestlefest: “Yes, I did (train VanZant) for a little while there.
      “She did well; she didn’t train as much as I would have liked for her to train, but I haven’t seen her since that match.
      “She did that match, she wrote me and said, ‘Hey, I’d like to go over the match with you and some critique.’
      “And I said, ‘Sure,’ and that’s the last I heard from her. She’s an athlete. She could have been really, really good at it actually.”

      “I’ve got somebody who’s six foot, who can make various weights with ease, which is a gift in itself, who’s as bodily strong as some men, with weights, cardio.
      “She’s a gifted athlete. The best of Savannah will be too much for anybody.”

      KSI, 29, is set to fight again at the start of the new year but revealed his ultimate ambition is to settle the score with Paul, 25.
      He said on DAZN: “January, I’ve got a few opponents on my mind.
      “Bro, I just want somebody to fight me, I want someone to properly give me a go.
      “But I’m ready, man. My main goal to come back is to fight Jake Paul. That’s the main reason. That’s always the goal.

      “Everything else I’m doing is just side quests, it’s just me having fun and showing the world why I’m so much better than Jake Paul.
      “Like SO much better.”
      KSI beat rapper Swarmz, 25, and so-called pro boxer Luis Alcaraz Pineda, 23, on his comeback night.
      Paul returns himself on October 29 in Arizona, against UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47.

      It will also be his first opponent to hold a recognised boxing record, with Silva 4-1 in the ring.
      Paul has previously beaten KSI’s friend “AnEsonGib”, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson, 38, as well as retired UFC pair Ben Askren, 38 and Tyron Woodley, 40.
      The American wants to avenge the loss his brother Logan, 27, suffered to KSI in their 2019 rematch, a year after drawing.
      And according to KSI’s manager Mams Taylor, Paul could get his wish next year.
      Taylor told Christian HD: “As long as there’s no f***ery on the contracts, 2023 that fight will happen.
      “Guaranteed as much as you can guarantee. I can guarantee from our side, yes.”
