"Forget about it. Idiot. Coward" - Tyson Fury rips "s**thouse bodybuilder" Anthony Joshua for failing to sign fight contract, says fight will not happen anymore
Tyson Fury appears to have rescinded his offer to fight Anthony Joshua after the latter failed to sign the bout agreement within the timeline given by 'The Gypsy King'.
Fury had given 'AJ' a deadline, Monday evening, to sign the contract. After Joshua failed to come through, 'The Gypsy King' uploaded a video to his Instagram Stories wherein he hurled insults at the 32-year-old and said the fight was now off the table.
"Well guys, it's official. D-Day has come and gone. It's gone past 5 o'clock Monday. No contract has been signed. It's officially over for Joshua. Forget about it. Idiot. Coward. S**thouse bodybuilder. Always knew it. Always knew you didn't have the minerals to fight 'The Gypsy King'. Regardless of what the f**k you say now, I don't really care. Good luck with your career and your life. End of. Peace out."

Jake Paul weighs in on Anthony Joshua vs. Tyson Fury
YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has shared his thoughts on the potential superfight.
In an interview with BT Sport Boxing, 'The Problem Child' picked Tyson Fury to emerge victorious against Joshua in a possible encounter. Paul added that no heavyweight has the ability to defeat 'The Gypsy King' inside the squared circle.
"I think, man I think Fury wins. I don't think anyone in the heavyweight division can beat Fury. Just his size, his bounce, his style, his chin, he's a lot to deal with both on the talent side of things and the size side of things."
