Tyson Fury’s dad tells Anthony Joshua how to secure British super-fight and reveals ‘only reason’ bout has not happened

JOHN FURY has attempted to tell Anthony Joshua how to secure a fight with son Tyson – believing there is one reason for its past downfall.

The heavyweight superstars have tried but failed to officially nail on the all-British blockbuster.

And according to Fury’s dad John, it is all down to Eddie Hearn as he hit out at Joshua’s promoter.

He told The Express, via Free Bets: “Joshua needs to get away from Eddie Hearn first.

“The only reason that fight wouldn’t happen is because he is an absolute w****.

“He talks out of his rear end and you know what I don’t even want to mention his name. But AJ get away from him.

“If you want to make good, get away from him. That’s all I’ve got to say about him.”

Joshua returns on April 1 against Jermaine Franklin following consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk.

It has left AJ out of the title picture and fighting to revive his career, while Fury, 34, is in talks to unify the belts against Usyk, 36.

But John urged fans to get behind Joshua, 33, so he can bounce back and set up the bout the nation wants most.

He said: “Listen, AJ’s a great kid, fans shouldn’t be turning against him and if they’re, then it’s wrong.

“AJ has given the public some great nights and they should support the man.

“Let me tell you this, the best is yet to come from AJ, so the fans should get behind him and let’s get him back to winning ways again and make the super fight once Tyson is done with the Ukrainian rabbit.

“It’s the biggest fight in boxing, absolutely. It’s bigger than Usyk. Joshua and Tyson is still a great fight.

“So, I urge fans, get behind the man don’t kick him when he’s down.”
