Fury, Joshua Stop FaceTiming Ahead Of Fight
Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua have stopped FaceTiming each other as an announcement on their fight is due.
The Brits are looking to face each other in a unifying bout to decide the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. Talk about the fight started after the Gypsy King won the WBC belt from Deontay Wilder over a year ago. And it saw them stay in regular contact, with Fury sharing one of his FaceTimes to the IBF, WBA, IBO and WBO champion on a documentary.
But the Gypsy King has been staying focussed on himself as contract talks have continued.
Mancunian quote as revealing: “I haven’t spoken to AJ at all during this deal, we used to FaceTime each other but not recently.
“Other people are getting paid a lot to get this done so we don’t need to.”
The pair signed off on a deal last month but still needed to agree to a venue and fees.
Saudi Arabia is currently leading the way to host the fight while the fees have proved more challenging.
But Fury believes that news of the – but he also had a warning that could throw the fight into jeopardy if news is not heard soon.
Speaking, the Gypsy King said: “I have been told there are a few good offers on the table, from a few different countries, from some very rich people, so I am confident.
“Saudi is involved, I will say that much, but there are also some dark horses involved who have offered some serious money.
The Gypsy King also said he is expecting news soon – but is still willing to ‘move on’ if it doesn’t come soon.
