Jake Paul<\/a> in Miami in December, and not since being a passenger in a car crash in Nigeria which killed two of his close friends and associates.<\/p>\nAnd while he did immediately respond to Fury’s call-out while sat at ringside, he refused to commit to fighting him at this stage.<\/p>\n
It was his closing remark to ‘The Gypsy King’, though, that has gotten fans talking.<\/p>\n
“Tonight is your night, and you know I’ll sit across that ring from you in due time,” Joshua said.<\/p>\n
“You ain’t gonna tell me what to do. I’ve been chasing you for the last 10 years. <\/p>\n
“When you’re ready, you come and see me and tell me your terms and conditions, and I’ll have you in the ring when I’m ready. I’m the boss. You work for me.<\/p>\n
“I’m the landlord. Remember that. You work for me.”<\/p>\n
After that final remark, Joshua threw his microphone into the ring at Fury, who caught it and continued with the verbals.<\/p>\n
Joshua would later tell Netflix’s Anna Woolhouse: “I’m going to be completely honest. There’s a negotiation to go through.<\/p>\n
“I’ve sat at this table many times. I’m not here to chase clout. Contracts will be sent over and I’ll more than likely be in the ring with him next.<\/p>\n
“He’s the one that retired. I’ve been in the game for 13 years, I’ve never retired. <\/p>\n
“I make the big fights. That’s what I said to him. He works for me.<\/p>\n
“I have to take a minute and do what’s best for me. I’m sorting some things out for my brothers and their families.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been here a million times with him before. If I’m honest with you right now, until we’re in the ring there is no fight with him. I’ve been here three or four times before with Deontay Wilder and Fury.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anthony Joshua dropped a nine-word comment in response to being called into the ring by both Tyson Fury…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":601833,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[8075,64,63,802,85,8691],"class_list":{"0":"post-601832","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-anthony-joshua","9":"tag-au","10":"tag-australia","11":"tag-boxing","12":"tag-sports","13":"tag-tyson-fury"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/601832","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=601832"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/601832\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/601833"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=601832"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=601832"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=601832"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
