But when it was suggested boxing fans did not care about watching Fury fight someone he has already beaten twice before, the Gypsy King was not happy.
And he quickly closed down the rest of the interview and gave an X-rated send-off to the host.
Fury blasted: “I think you’re a t****r. You little t***pot.
“And I won’t be doing any more interviews with you little t***pot, bearded, bald-headed t***er.

“Kiss my b**ls, you little w**ker. You little s***house.”
But as he tried to bow out with his expletive-laden rant, Fury seemed unable to hang up from the video call as his confused face filled the screen.
True Geordie could not resist a cheeky body shot before Fury retorted: “Suck a d***.”
The host – real name Brian Davis – quipped as Fury finally left: “Well, that went well.

“Have you ever been cussed out by the heavyweight champion of the world? Probably not. 
“Very glad I did this one on video call because that could’ve been a painful end to my life.”
Fury’s temper turned in the interview when Davis labelled the Chsiora bout on December 3 as a “mismatch” and instead thinks he should fight someone new, such as Anthony Joshua.
However, Fury hit back at the podcaster.
The undefeated WBC heavyweight world champion said: “No matter what you say, or what people like you want to say about Derek Chisora, he’s achieved more in boxing and in fighting than ten men like you could ever achieve
“So I’m not going to just let you sit here and slate somebody who’s fought the best fighters of this era just because he’s lost a few fights. 
“It is what it is. I’ll be fighting Chisora… and if you don’t want to watch it then please don’t, and if you do, tune in.

“And if you don’t want to buy a ticket, don’t buy a ticket. And if you do, be like the rest of the 50-odd, 60-odd thousand that’s already bought tickets.
“Don’t write Derek Chisora off, because you’re only one punch away from victory or disaster.” More

The British star boxers are set to complete a trilogy after the Gypsy King won both of their previous meetings in 2011 and 2014.
This comes after Fury tried to set up a heavyweight showdown with Usyk and Anthony Joshua, both of which could still happen in the near future.
According to talkSPORT, however, the undefeated Ukrainian is baffled by his rival’s decision to fight Chisora one more time.
Usyk said: “It kind of makes me laugh a little bit. Why’s he doing this?”

Fury suggested that he will go after the Ukrainian star after he is done with Chisora.

Fury said: “I’m not gonna sit here and call Chisora names. I respect him.
“I’ve got nothing bad to say about Derek; he’s a good fighting man, and he brings his A game every time.

“[But] In my reign right now, I’m reigning supreme. I’ll beat him, and then I’ll beat the little middleweight guy [Usyk].
“He says he’s gonna knock me out, I wanna see him do it. If he does, I’ll be the first to congratulate him.” More

And Hearn insists Joshua only wants to face a big name for his comeback bout next year after two world title losses to Oleksandr Usyk.
But he rates a clash with Whyte as the likeliest option after talks to meet unbeaten Tyson Fury broke down.
Hearn told Boxing Social: “If you’re looking at three fights next for which you hope for him to have, maybe you go Dillian Whyte, Wilder, Fury.
“I mean that would be the dream year, but probably one of them would be nice the way everything’s going.

“I do feel that AJ–Wilder is just a massive global heavyweight fight. 
“Two titans that the fight could end at any moment. I think it’s a tremendous fight.” 
Joshua is still in training despite a December clash with Fury falling through.
And although Hearn claims his man is hungry to meet a household name, AJ has also been called out by Otto Wallin and Chris Arreola.

It could all depend on whether Whyte beats Jermaine Franklin at Wembley Arena on November 26.
Hearn told the DAZN Boxing Show of Joshua’s schedule: “Originally in December if that Tyson Fury fight could get made but now it hasn’t and probably January or February is when it gets made.
“Talking to him the other day he wants to fight Dillian Whyte and… Whyte is the front runner if he comes through.
“There is the Wilder situation which is definitely a fight he is looking at.
“And I don’t think he wants to start looking outside of the top ten of the governing bodies.” More

And he had no room for two-time world champion Joshua as he simultaneously lavished praise on Tyson Fury.
He said: “I would say obviously Tyson.
“I think he’s far, easily the number one.
“I think the number two is (Oleksandr) Usyk. I think number three is (Deontay) Wilder.

“I’ll then say Joe (Joyce).
“And then I’ll say – and you would probably think yeah you would say this – but I also think Daniel (Dubois).”
His snub of Joshua comes after he and Fury were unable to agree terms in order to fight on December 3 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
In his autobiography, Gloves Off, Fury revealed how his desire to give fans “a moment of sporting history” sparked his retirement U-turn.

But Fury has instead drafted in Derek Chisora to complete a trilogy bout against him on the date.
Once that is out of the way, Fury could then face off against Usyk in a heavyweight unification bout for the ages that would see all four belts on the line for the first time in the four-belt era. More

Fury, 34, is set to take on Derek Chisora in their trilogy bout on December 3 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
And speaking to Queensberry’s YouTube channel, Warren revealed that he wants the Chisora fight to be the first of three visits to the ring for Fury in the next 12 months.
As reported by boxing writer Michael Benson, Warren claims the Gypsy King will target a unification bout with Oleksandr Usyk in February or March.
Should Fury come through against the WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO champion – Warren wants him to return in the summer to fight Joyce.

The Juggernaut, 37, is 15-0 as a professional and is coming off an impressive win against Joseph Parker last month.
Speaking on Instagram after Joyce’s win over Parker, Fury was generous in his praise of the Londoner.
He said: “I’ve had a lovely day of watching boxing, watching all of the big fights and studying all the heavyweights.
“And I’ve gotta say that big Joe Joyce is the second best heavyweight in the world, behind myself.”

He then added: “And on his day, given his moment, who knows if he could beat me or not? I think we’ll have to find out one of the days.
“But just looked at these prospects, who’s mandatory for the world titles. [Zhilei] Zhangs and [Igor] Jurkovics and everybody else.
“I’ve changed my mind and I think big Joe Joyce is number two heavyweight in the world, and who knows if he’s number one?”
Warren wants to arrange a fight for Joyce in February… before putting him in with Fury.
This may be where Joshua COULD force his way into Warren’s equation, however, with the Juggernaut having called him out.
Speaking to SunSport, Joyce said: “I don’t think Usyk’s going to fight me, he’s going to fight Fury first.
“But yeah, the Joshua fight is one that I’d like to do. “I’d like to bash him up.”

Fury then made a U-turn on the decision and held discussions with Joshua to fight on December 3.
However, the talks broke down after Joshua failed to meet Fury’s deadline to sign the contract.
Instead, Derek Chisora has been drafted in to complete a trilogy, with Fury emerging the victor of the previous two fights in 2011 and 2014.
But Fury is desperate to give fans a show, which he believes the “Battle of Britain” bout with AJ would achieve.

Speaking in his autobiography, Gloves Off, Fury revealed: “The other fight I’ve been interested in is a showdown to stop the nation in its tracks.
“A match with Anthony Joshua would fall into this category, and in September 2022, I even offered to battle him in the UK with a 60-40 split in earnings.
“I wanted it to be a moment in sporting history, a fight for Britain.
“But so far we haven’t been able to make it happen.

“Now I’m due to fight Derek Chisora on December 3 — having already beaten him twice.”
Fury currently holds the WBC heavyweight title but could be in line for a chance to face Oleksandr Usyk – the holder of the WBO, WBA, IBO and IBF titles.
And should the pair fight one another then it would make for a never-seen-before fight with all four belts on the line for the first time in the four-belt era.
Meanwhile, Joshua is set to square up against Whyte early next year. More
