Anthony Joshua says he doesn't want Tyson Fury fight because he's 'bored' of him

ANTHONY JOSHUA claims he does not want to fight Tyson Fury after growing "bored" of his British rival.

The Gypsy King has been calling out heavyweight champ AJ since stepping up his comeback.

But Joshua – who will take on Joseph Parker in his latest title defence – thinks Fury is overestimating how big a draw he is.

Asked who he was keen to meet next, he told Fight Hub TV: "Not so much Fury anymore because I’m a bit bored of the talking.

“I just want to see him get back in action and sometimes I say the right thing and I say I’m looking forward to him getting back and other times I say I just can’t be bothered because it’s just an ongoing situation.

“It’s his decision to not box – no one forced him not to box it was his decision he had two rematches scheduled with Klitschko he didn’t take the fights, he’s been inactive for two and a half years.

“Should the whole boxing industry stop and wait for him? He hasn’t addressed his situations properly, I’m not going to stop my career – I’m going to keep on rocking-and-rolling.

“Remember people forget before the Klitschko fight Fury wasn’t regarded as an exciting fighter or the man of boxing, he’s talking gave him the respect recently and the adversity’s he has faced has gained him a lot more attention than his boxing style.
