I am number 1 – Fury teases Anthony Joshua after Wilder’s loss
Tyson Fury has teased Anthony Joshua to say he’s the number one boxer in the world after beating Deontay Wilder to a pulp.
In an interview with iFL TV, Fury says he’s world’s number one and a record breaker who holds on to two major titles and gone ahead to beat Wladimir Klitschko and Deontay Wilder in their homes.
“I beat Wladimir Klitschko in Germany, I beat Deontay Wilder in Los Angeles and came back and did it again in Las Vegas. Say no more.
“Two-time Ring Magazine champion of the world, only the second man in history. WBC heavyweight champion and lineal heavyweight champion of the world. Number one baby, that’s it,” Fury said.
The Gypsy King gave a sterling performance after beating Wilder to claim the WBC belt in a seven rounds bout that had Wilder’s trainers throwing in the towel to avoid more havoc.
He went on to say, “If Deontay don’t want the rematch, then let’s go AJ.”
Currently, Joshua holds the rest of the belts in the division – and promoter, Eddie Hearn, has already teased a unification fight.
