In his Instagram video, Fury said, “This is a reconfirmation of what I’ve said about fighting Anthony Joshua for f**k all in England. That’s how the fight happens. I’ll sign the contract today. The fight’s got to be for free. Free to our television and all tickets go for free. No money is to be made from this British, historic fight, if it happens.”
“There’s the terms. I’m in the driving seat. Take it or effing leave it. The ball is in your court. Either way, I don’t give a damn. There’s the offer. Peace out,” said Fury in his Instagram video. The fighter captioned the video writing, “I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again @anthonyjoshua …You want to see the Gypsy King come out of retirement for the biggest fight in Boxing history against AJ?
