Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua continue to dance around a fight with one another.
For Fury, it remains the “biggest” bout that boxing can book, who talked to Sky Sports at a time in which Joshua is firmly in a training camp, returning to the gym to seemingly get fighting fit, for the first time since he was a passenger in a tragic car accident that claimed the lives of two of his closest friends — Sina Ghami (a conditioning coach) and Kevin ‘Latz’ Ayodele (personal trainer). They both died in a fatal car crash in Nigeria late December, in an accident that left AJ with minor injuries.
Joshua had just broken Jake Paul’s face in a Netflix exhibition, and had been linked with a second successive crossover fight, this one against Rico Verhoeven in February. The kickboxing icon instead boxes Oleksandr Usyk at the Pyramids of Giza.
Fury, meanwhile, returns to the ring April 11 against Arslanbek Makhmudov and, ahead of the stadium event on Netflix, talked-up a possible future fight against Joshua — one of the most eagerly-awaited spectacles of modern sport.

“Good to see the guy back in training camp,” Fury told Sky Sports of his rival’s return to the gym.
“He’s obviously had a bit of a tough time lately and all that. So I’ll just give him space and whatever he wants to do, he can do.”
“Even today, even after all these years it’s still the biggest fight in boxing, it’s still the biggest fight,” he finished.
Fury’s comments follow a social post from Joshua himself, seemingly indicating his future remains firmly in the sport.
