Tyson Fury is feeling ‘very bitter’ for one reason ahead of rumored fight with Anthony Joshua

Tyson Fury is apparently still feeling very frustrated about one of his biggest fights.

While ‘The Gypsy King’ has confirmed his retirement, fans around the globe are hopeful that the Brit will return for one last dance.

Last week, it was reported that Fury has ‘agreed’ to face Anthony Joshua, bringing the colossal showdown one step closer to coming to fruition.

However, the fighter himself has yet to announce a comeback, and is supposedly still very upset about how things have panned out.

Tyson Fury is ‘very bitter’ over the Oleksandr Usyk rematch

WBC President, Mauricio Sulaiman, is in regular contact with Tyson Fury, and on the contrary to reports, says the boxer claims he’s still very much retired.

In addition, the Mexican says the former unified heavyweight champion remains very angry about how the Oleksandr Usyk rematch was judged.

The businessman told Sky Sports: “I call him regularly and he said: ‘Oh, I’m so happy, retired, I’m here with my wife’. He didn’t hint whatsoever that he was planning on coming back.

“He told me he was not happy with the decision in the second fight with Usyk. He’s still very bitter about the judges’ scoring, and he was very upset, but he was retired, that’s what he said.”

Sulaiman added: “Maybe like in The Godfather, the movie, maybe we’ll hear him say: ‘Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in’! We don’t know…”

Anthony Joshua told Tyson Fury to his face that he’d lose to a massive rival, years before either won world titles

The fight between Fury and Anthony Joshua has been brewing for years.

Long before either conquered the boxing world, the pair sat around a table and discussed one of the 6ft9 giant’s upcoming fights.

In a testament to his bravery, ‘AJ’ didn’t shy away from letting ‘The Furious One’ know exactly what he thought.

Surprisingly, Joshua told Fury that he’d lose to a huge rival.
