Tyson Fury has called out promoter Eddie Hearn to make the fight with unified world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, vowing he would ‘spank’ him

The unbeaten 28-year-old hasn't fought since he beat Wladimir Klitschko back in November 2015 but has announced his intention to step back inside the ring

TYSON FURY issued a scathing message to promoter Eddie Hearn in the wake of Anthony Joshua’s emphatic KO win against Wladimir Klitschko.

The two Brit heavyweights are seemingly on a collision course, and the predicted mega-fight could be moving closer than we may think as Fury calls out Joshua once again.

The outspoken 28-year-old hasn’t fought since his win own over Klitschko, way back in November 2015 when he won via a unanimous decision.

But since Fury announced his intention to step back inside the ring, he has identified Joshua as the perfect target for his comeback fight.

You can be sure if the two ever meet each other in the professional ranks, Wembley Stadium will be used once again.
