"Keep on running, you little cowards" Tyson Fury Unloads on Anthony Joshua and Matchroom
Tyson Fury has taken to social media to unload a rant about Anthony Joshua, Eddie Hearn and Matchroom.
The biggest fight in British boxing history has yet again hit another stumbling block. Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua is being planned for November after both men won their respective warm-up fights in recent months.
After a decade in the making, Fury has come out via social media to state that Joshua, his promoter, Eddie Hearn and Matchroom are asking for too much money, leading to the fight being stalled.
Stumbling blocks were already apprent when the location of the fight lead to questions being asked about whether the fight is really for fans of British boxing. The initial discussions had the fight taking place in New York at Madison Square Garden, not exactly ideal for English fans.
Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua - Another Stumbling Block
Fury's Rant
The former lineal heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury, took to social media to hurl a rant towards all things Anthony Joshua. He said, "It doesn’t look like they are going to sign the fight, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen. All because Eddie Hearn and that want more money. They’ve already had that much money off of Turki in the last few years, Eddie and AJ, yeah. They’ve had boxing deals, they’ve had darts deals, they’ve had snooker deals. They’ve had everything. And yet, they have got the audacity and the cheek to ask for more money from old Turki. You’re all disgusting, money-thirsty pieces of s***. It is what it is. Keep on running, you little cowards."
"YOU'RE A LITTLE BULLY"

Matchroom's Side
From Matchroom's side, things are more relaxed. CEO Frank Smith has said "Conversations are ongoing. We've got a contract; our job is to abide by the terms we signed up to. So it may end up in the US, but the contract will have to change. We all have a legal obligation for the fight to take place in the UK."
This is great news for UK fans, however, as of yet, nothing is signed and until we see both men in the ring, it will be hard to believe that it will actually happen.
