Tyson Fury mocks Anthony Joshua's ringside talk to salt the wounds after Usyk loss
Tyson Fury has once again mocked Anthony Joshua after his second straight loss to Oleksandr Usyk. Shortly after the contest, the Gypsy King ripped the two fighters apart on social media - claiming it was one of the worst world heavyweight title clashes he had ever seen. p>
Fury has also seemingly confirmed that he will be ready to fight and throw unified champion Usyk, who has added the historic Ring Magazine belt to his collection in Saudi Arabia.
Now the Gypsy King has mocked Joshua's antics in the ring after the fight, when he stormed back from the tunnel to deliver an impassioned speech.
He shared a video on his Instagram Story of a Fury meme running to the ring for his fight with Dillian Whyte, along with the caption: "AJ coming back to the ring to talk about whatever."< /p>
AJ showed emotion after the split decision loss and spoke from the bottom of his heart into the microphone, praising the quality of rival Usyk.
In a long, impassioned rant, he told Sky Sports: "If you knew my story, you would understand my passion.
"I'm not a five year old amateur boxer who was an elite prospect since youth. I was going to jail, got out on bail and started training, I wanted be able to fight.
"I'm stealing this Usyk, I'm sorry, but it's because of the passion we put into it.
“That guy who beat me tonight, maybe I could have done better, but it shows the level of hard work I put in, so please applaud him as as world heavyweight champion."
He later added, "I'm not a 12 round fighter, look at me, I'm a new breed of heavyweight, Mike Tyson, Sonny Liston, Jack Dempsey, 'you don't throw combinations like Rocky Marciano', I'm 18 stone, I'm heavy, it's hard work.
"This guy here has phenomenal talent, we're going to cheer him on three times."
Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn came to his man's defense at his post-fight press conference when Joshua struggled to hold back tears.
Hearn said of Fury, "Na, look, he's a decent man here [Joshua], you know what I mean? A decent man who don't talk shit, don't tell lies , he gives everyone his time.
“I don't know Tyson Fury well enough. This guy here [AJ] is my friend, he's a great person, he gave it his all tonight. that you are."
He later added in a separate interview, "You saw [Joshua's] reaction there. In Tyson Fury, he's a guy who openly says he's had all these mental health issues and these struggles, stuff like that.
"You see a guy [AJ] up there crying, as big and strong as AJ, who for years put on a brave face. And tonight you just saw cracks in the armor.
"So if you want to see a guy who's been through this 'mental health' experience and bothering someone when they're depressed and when they're devastated, that shows you the kind of man he [ Fury] is."
